In this paper,a 0.7-7 GHz wideband RF receiver front-end SoC is designed using the CMOS process.The front-end is composed of two main blocks:a single-ended wideband low noise amplifier (LNA) and an inphase/quadrature (I/Q) voltage-driven passive mixer with IF amplifiers.Based on a self-biased resistive negative feedback topology,the LNA adopts shunt-peaking inductors and a gate inductor to boost the bandwidth.The passive down-conversion mixer includes two parts:passive switches and IF amplifiers.The measurement results show that the front-end works well at different LO frequencies,and this chip is reconfigurable among 0.7 to 7 GHz by tuning the LO frequency.The measured results under 2.5-GHz LO frequency show that the front-end SoC achieves a maximum conversion gain of 26 dB,a minimum noise figure (NF) of 3.2 dB,with an IF bandwidth of greater than 500 MHz.The chip area is 1.67 × 1.08 mm2. 相似文献

This paper describes cryogenic broad-band amplifiers with very low power consumption and very low noise for the 4-8-GHz frequency range. At room temperature, the two-stage InP-based amplifier has a gain of 27 dB and a noise temperature of 31 K with a power consumption of 14.4 mW per stage, including bias circuitry. When cooled to 15 K, an input noise temperature of 1.4 K is obtained at 5.7 mW per stage. At 0.51 mW per stage, the input noise increases to 2.4 K. The noise measurements have been repeated at different laboratories using different methods and are found consistent. 相似文献

A two-stage 8–12 GHz (X-band) cryogenically-cooled Low-Noise Amplifier (LNA) has been developed with a commercial pseudomorphic HEMT on AsGa substrate. In a first step, different commercial transistors have been fully characterized from 300 K to 20 K using a new method to measure the four noise parameters. Preliminary results have allowed the selection of the best device. This enabled the design of the two-stage LNA with the help of a microwave CAD software. In a second step, the LNA has been characterized at 300 K, 30 K and 4 K. As the physical temperature decreased from 300 K to 30 K, the LNA exhibited an average gain increase of 2 dB and as much as a fourfold reduction of noise temperature. A noise figure of 22.5 K and a gain of 23 dB have been achieved at 30 K around 10 GHz. The noise temperature has been furthermore reduced to 20 K by cooling the amplifier at the liquid helium temperature (4.2 K). Different methods to measure the noise characteristics of the amplifier are widely developed in this paper. 相似文献

A cryogenic single-stage broadband f.e.t. amplifier with an average noise temperature of 34 K (0.5 dB) over a bandwidth of 2 GHz has been developed. The average gain is 12 dB. The best spot noise temperature is 17 K (0.25 dB) at 3.2 GHz, which is competitive with cryogenic parametric amplifiers. 相似文献

We report precision measurements of the effective input noise temperature of a cryogenic (liquid-helium temperature) monolithic-microwave integrated-circuit amplifier at the amplifier reference planes within the cryostat. A method is given for characterizing and removing the effect of the transmission lines between the amplifier reference planes and the input and output connectors of the cryostat. In conjunction with careful noise measurements, this method enables us to measure amplifier noise temperatures below 5 K with an uncertainty of 0.3 K. The particular amplifier that was measured exhibits a noise temperature below 5.5 K from 1 to 11 GHz, attaining a minimum value of 2.3 K/spl plusmn/0.3 K at 7 GHz. This corresponds to a noise figure of 0.034 dB/spl plusmn/0.004 dB. The measured amplifier gain is between 33.4 dB/spl plusmn/0.3 dB and 35.8 dB/spl plusmn/0.3 dB over the 1-12-GHz range. 相似文献

The cryogenic noise temperature performances of a two-stage and a three-stage 32-GHz HEMT (high-electron-mobility transistor) amplifier were evaluated. The amplifiers utilize quarter-micrometer conventional AlGaAs/GaAs HEMT devices, hybrid matching input and output microstrip circuits, and a cryogenically stable DC biasing network. The noise temperature measurements were performed in the frequency range of 31 to 33 GHz over a physical temperature range of 300 to 12 K. Across the measurement band, the amplifiers displayed a broadband response, and the noise temperature was observed to decrease by a factor of ten in cooling from 300 to 15 K. The lowest noise temperature measured for the two-stage amplifier at 32 GHz was 35 K with an associated gain of 16.5 dB, while for the three-stage amplifier it was 39 K with an associated gain of 26 dB. It was further observed that both amplifiers were insensitive to light 相似文献

We report results on the cryogenic operation of two different monolithic X-band silicon-germanium (SiGe) heterojunction bipolar transistor low noise amplifiers (LNAs) implemented in a commercially-available 130 nm SiGe BiCMOS platform. These SiGe LNAs exhibit a dramatic reduction in noise temperature with cooling, yielding of less than 21 K (0.3 dB noise figure) across X-band at a 15 K operating temperature. To the authors' knowledge, these SiGe LNAs exhibit the lowest broadband noise of any Si-based LNA reported to date. 相似文献

In this paper, we present three MMIC low-noise amplifiers using dual-gate GaAs HEMT devices in a balanced amplifier configuration. The designs target three different frequency bands including 4-9 GHz, 9-20 GHz, and 20-40 GHz. These dual-gate balanced designs demonstrate the excellent qualities of balanced amplifiers in terms of stability and matched characteristics, while demonstrating higher bandwidth than designs with a single-stage common-source device. Additionally, noise performance is excellent, with the 4-9 GHz LNA demonstrating <1.75 dB noise figure (NF), the 9-20 GHz LNA <2.75 dB NF and the 20-40 GHz LNA <2.5 dB NF. Demonstrating high gain and excellent bandwidth, the dual-gate devices seem a logical choice for the balanced amplifier topology. 相似文献

A wide-band low-noise amplifier (LNA) design is presented with -10 dB input reflection coefficient and 100-K noise temperature over the 8-20-GHz frequency range at room temperature. This LNA can be cooled down in a liquid helium cryostat to have 10-K noise temperature for the purpose of radio-astronomy application. To achieve its wide-band characteristics, a novel input matching mechanism is proposed, which combines the high-frequency inductive feedback and the low-frequency capacitive feedback. The recognition and comprehensive interpretation of this new input matching mechanism is crucial for future development of ultra-wide-band LNAs. 相似文献

This paper presents a direct-conversion receiver for FCC-compliant ultra-wideband (UWB) Gaussian-shaped pulses that are transmitted in one of fourteen 500-MHz-wide channels within the 3.1–10.6-GHz band. The receiver is fabricated in 0.18-$mu$ m SiGe BiCMOS. The packaged chip consists of an unmatched wideband low-noise amplifier (LNA), filter, phase-splitter, 5-GHz ISM band switchable notch filter, 3.1–10.6-GHz local oscillator (LO) amplifiers, mixers, and baseband channel-select filters/buffers. The required quadrature single-ended LO signals are generated externally. The average conversion gain and input$P_1 dB$ are 32 dB and$-$ 41 dBm, respectively. The unmatched LNA provides a system noise figure of 3.3 to 5 dB over the entire band. The chip draws 30 mA from 1.8 V. To verify the unmatched LNA's performance in a complete system, wireless testing of the front-end embedded in a full receiver at 100 Mbps reveals a$10^-3$ bit-error rate (BER) at$-$ 80 dBm sensitivity. The notch filter suppresses out-of-band interferers and reduces the effects of intermodulation products that appear in the baseband. BER improvements of an order of magnitude and greater are demonstrated with the filter. 相似文献

Super low-noise GaAs MESFET's for replacement of parametric amplifiers have been successfully developed by adopting a deep-recess structure. The structure of a 0.5-µm gate in a deeply recessed region with a cylindrical edge shape has enabled reduction of the source resistance to a half of that of conventional flat-type MESFET's. The noise figure was improved by more than 0.5 dB by this reduction of the source resistance, and less than 2.0-dB noise figure has been reproducibly obtained at 12 GHz. The best noise figures were 0.7 dB (14.9-dB gain) at 4 GHz and 1.68 dB (10.7-dB gain) at 12 GHz. The developed MESFET's were applied to two-stage amplifiers of 11.7-12.2-GHz band, and the noise figure obtained was 2.16 dB (T_{e}: 185 K) at room temperature and 1.94 dB (T_{e}: 163 K) at 0°C. This performance is good enough to replace some of parametic amplifiers. 相似文献
