A 4.2-5 GHz,low phase noise LC-VCO with constant bandwidth and small tuning gain

As the tuning frequency of an integrated LC-voltage controlled oscillator （LC-VCO） increases, it is difficult to co-design the active negative resistance core and the varactor to achieve wideband frequency range, low phase noise, constant bandwidth and small tuning gain together. The presented VCO solves the problem by designing a set of changeable varactor units. The whole VCO was implemented in a 0.18μm CMOS process. The measured result shows -120 dBc/Hz phase noise at 1 MHz offset. The measured tuning range is from 4.2 to 5 GHz and the tuning gain is 8-10 MHz/V. The VCO draws 4 mA from a 1.5 V supply voltage.     

一个4.2至5吉赫兹，低相位噪声，低调谐增益，等子频带间距的电感电容型压控振荡器

随着电感电容型压控振荡器调谐频率的增加,综合设计其中的负阻单元及可变电容,以同时达到宽调谐范围、低相位噪声、等子频带间距和低调谐增益输出频率的目标正变得越来越困难。本文中的压控振荡器通过设计一组开关可变电容阵列来解决这个问题,我们在0.18 μm CMOS工艺上实现了这个设计,并优化了相位噪声性能。测试表明,1兆赫兹频偏处的相位噪声达到-120dBc/Hz,调谐范围为4.2吉赫兹至5吉赫兹,调谐增益为8-10MHz/V,压控振荡器在1.5伏电源电压下至多消耗4毫安电流。

集成片上天线的低成本低功耗超高频射频识别标签

This paper presents an EPC Class 1 Generation 2 compatible tag with on-chip antenna implemented in the SMIC 0.18 μm standard CMOS process.The UHF tag chip includes an RF/analog front-end, a digital baseband, and a 640-bit EEPROM memory.The on-chip antenna is optimized based on a novel parasitic-aware model.The rectifier is optimized to achieve a power conversion efficiency up to 40% by applying a self-bias feedback and threshold compensation techniques.A good match between the tag circuits and the on-chip antenna is realized by adjusting the rectifier input impedance.Measurements show that the presented tag can achieve a communication range of 1 cm with 1 W reader output power using a 1 × 1 cm2 single-turn loop reader antenna.
