摘要
采用0.18μmRF CMOS工艺结合EPC C1G2协议和ETSI规范要求,实现了一种应用于CMOS超高频射频识别阅读器中的低噪声ΔΣ小数频率综合器。基于三位三阶误差反馈型ΔΣ解调器,采用系数重配技术,有效提高频率综合器中频段噪声性能;关键电路VCO的设计过程中采用低压差调压器技术为VCO提供稳定偏压,提高了VCO相位噪声性能。多电源供电模式下全芯片偏置电流为9.6mA,测得在中心频率频偏200kHz、1MHz处,相处噪声分别为-108dBc/Hz和-129.8dBc/Hz。
A low phase noise fractional-N frequency synthesizer for CMOS UHF RFID reader is introduced in this paper. The phase noise requirements are summarized for the EPC global CIG2 and ETSI multi-protocol operation. A low drop-output regulator is presented to improve the phase noise performance of the VCO. Based on the error-feedback delta-sigma modulator, a coefficient reconfiguring technology has been introduced to improve the phase noise performance at intermediate frequency band. The proposed circuit is implemented with 0. 18 μm RF CMOS process. The fractional-N frequency synthesizer achieves a phase noise of -108 dBc/Hz and --129.8 dBc/Hz at 200 kHz and 1 MHz offset from the carrier respectively. The whole chip draws 9.6 mA from the multiple power supply configuration.
