A 240-GHz Sub-THz Direct-Conversion Transmitter With I/Q Phase Calibration in 40-nm CMOS

A 240-GHz Sub-THz Direct-Conversion Transmitter With I/Q Phase Calibration in 40-nm CMOS 150 150
Author(s): Chun-Sheng Lin, Chih-Hsueh Lin, Chun-Hsing Li

Abstract:

A 240-GHz direct-conversion transmitter (TX), consisting of an LO chain and fundamental I/Q mixers, is proposed for sub-THz communication applications. The LO chain integrates phase-shifter-embedded impedance matching networks (IMNs) and frequency tripler with an optimized harmonic IMN, delivering I/Q LO signals at 240 GHz with high output power, 360° phase …

A 0.7-V Multiclass Digital Doherty Power Amplifier for BLE Applications With 41% Peak DE in 22-nm CMOS

A 0.7-V Multiclass Digital Doherty Power Amplifier for BLE Applications With 41% Peak DE in 22-nm CMOS 150 150
Author(s): Edoardo Baiesi Fietta, David Seebacher, Davide Ponton, Andrea Bevilacqua

Abstract:

This letter presents a multiclass, asymmetric digital Doherty power amplifier (DDPA) for Bluetooth low energy (BLE) applications, that achieves high efficiency at full-scale as well as at 8.6-dB back-off using a single 0.7-V supply voltage. The proposed DDPA is made of two power-combined switched-capacitor power amplifiers (SCPAs) and uses an …
