摘要
A low voltage,highly linear transconductance-C（G_m-C） low-pass filter for wireless local area network （WLAN） transceiver application is proposed.This transmitter（Tx） filter adopts a 9.8 MHz 3rd-order Chebyshev low pass prototype and achieves 35 dB stop-band attenuation at 30 MHz frequency.By utilizing pseudo-differential linear-region MOS transconductors,the filter IIP_3 is measured to be as high as 9.5 dBm.Fabricated in a 0.35μm standard CMOS technology,the proposed filter chip occupies a 0.41×0.17 mm^2 die area and consumes 3.36 mA from a 3.3-V power supply.
