An Antenna-to-Bits F-Band 120-Gbps CMOS RF-64QAM Receiver

An Antenna-to-Bits F-Band 120-Gbps CMOS RF-64QAM Receiver 150 150

Abstract:

A CMOS 100–140-GHz end-to-end receiver (RX) is presented that integrates the antenna input all the way to the bitstream output, while demodulating 64QAM/16QAM/QPSK entirely in the analog domain. A sequential asynchronous demodulation method enables 120-Gbps operation at a notably small baseband power consumption. Fabricated in a 22-nm FDSOI …

A Wideband Calibration-Free D-Band Passive Phase Shifter With Frequency-Invariant Codes Over 24% Fractional Bandwidth

A Wideband Calibration-Free D-Band Passive Phase Shifter With Frequency-Invariant Codes Over 24% Fractional Bandwidth 150 150

Abstract:

This work presents a compact 110–140 GHz bidirectional D-band passive phase shifter based on combining a 5-stage capacitively-loaded reflective-type PS (RTPS) with a wideband 0°/180° stage. The design achieves a 360° phase range with a resolution of 11.25°. By applying: 1) a wideband RTPS design methodology on the stage level; 2) frequency/switching-staggering techniques among the …

A Compact Current-Reusing 6-mW 66–92 GHz Frequency Quadrupler With 5% Peak Power Added Efficiency and >36 dBc Harmonic Rejection in 22-nm FDSOI CMOS

A Compact Current-Reusing 6-mW 66–92 GHz Frequency Quadrupler With 5% Peak Power Added Efficiency and >36 dBc Harmonic Rejection in 22-nm FDSOI CMOS 150 150

Abstract:

This letter presents a frequency quadrupler with 32% fractional bandwidth (66–92 GHz) and 5% peak power-added efficiency (PAE), capable of operating with an input power of 0 dBm. The quadrupler consisting of two cascaded frequency doublers uses a multiport driven push-push complementary architecture for the first stage to generate differential signals for the second …
