A W-Band Active Bidirectional Phase Shifter With 2° RMS Phase Error Over 26.4% FBW Using Back-Gate Biasing in 28-nm FD-SOI CMOS 150 150

Abstract:

This article presents a W-band active bidirectional vector-sum phase shifter (Bi-VSPS) using a bidirectional phase-inverting variable-gain amplifier (Bi-PIVGA) with back-gate biasing in 28-nm fully depleted silicon-on-insulator (FD-SOI) CMOS. The Bi-PIVGA employs a neutralization technique that cancels the gate-to-drain capacitances of both active and inactive transistors in each signal direction. By …

A 10 to 40 GHz Reflection-Mode N-Path Filter

A 10 to 40 GHz Reflection-Mode N-Path Filter 150 150

Abstract:

A bandpass reflection-mode N-path filter (RMNF) with 2-GHz bandwidth and 10 to 40 GHz center-frequency tuning is presented. The design includes a broadband hybrid coupler, N-path reflectors, comprising four-phase passive mixers terminated with third-order in-phase and quadrature-phase active baseband loads, and a broadband clock-generation network. The reflectors realize an in-band open circuit …
