摘要
A quadrature modulator and an up-conversion mixer for an 802. lla wireless LAN system are designed and fabricated in 0.18μm gate length standard CMOS technology. A current feedback loop with a transconductor is used to improve the linearity of the quadrature modulator;An LC resonant tank is used as the load of the upconversion mixer to improve its gain and increase the voltage swing. The measurement results show that the input P1dB achieves -3.6dBm, the transducer power gain of the circuit is -3.6dB,and the current consumes about 45.8mA with a 1.8V power supply.
采用0.18μm CMOS工艺,设计并实现了应用于WLANIEEE802.11a的正交调制器和上变频器.正交调制器在传统的Gilbert单元基础上,采用负反馈跨导放大器来提高线性度;上变频器采用LC谐振网络作混频器负载来提高增益和电压输出摆幅.测试结果表明,在1.8V电源电压下,谐振频率点的1dB压缩点P1dB为-3.6dBm,功率转换增益为-3.6dB,电流消耗大约45.8mA.
