摘要
This paper presents a novel,fully integrated transmitter for 3-5 GHz pulsed UWB.The BPSK modulation transmitter has been implemented in SMIC CMOS 0.13μm technology with a 1.2-V supply voitage and a die size of 0.8×0.95 mm;.This transmitter is based on the impulse response filter method,which uses a tunable R paralleled with a LC frequency selection network to realize continuously adjustable pulse parameters,including bandwidth,width and amplitude.Due to the extremely low duty of the pulsed UWB,a proposed output buffer is employed to save power consumption significantly.Finally,measurement results show that the transmitter consumes only 16.3 pJ/pulse to achieve a pulse repetition rate of 100 Mb/s.Generated pulses strictly comply with the FCC spectral mask.The continuously variable pulse width is from 900 to 1.5 ns and the amplitude with the minimum 178 mVpp and the maximum 432 mVpp can be achieved.
