This synthesizer uses two phase-locked loops for generating steady frequencies and one quadrature single-sideband mixer for frequency shifting and quadrature frequency generation. The generated carriers can hop among 3432 MHz, 3960 MHz, and 4488 MHz. Implemented in a 0.13 μm CMOS process, this fully integrated synthesizer consumes 27 mA current from a 1.2 V supply. Measurement shows that the out-of-band spurious tones are below -50 dBc, while the in-band spurious tones are below -34 dBc. The measured hopping time is below 2 ns. The core die area is 1.0 ×1.8 mm^2.展开更多

Designed in 0.18μm CMOS, the transceiver system employs direct-conversion architecture for both the receiver and transmitter to realize a fully integrated wireless LAN product. A sigma-delta (∑△) fractional-N frequency synthesizer provides on-chip quadrature local oscillator frequency. Measurement results show that the receiver achieves a maximum gain of 81 dB and a noise figure of 8.2 dB, the transmitter has maximum output power of -3.4 dBm and RMS EVM of 6.8%. Power dissipation of the transceiver is 74 mW in the receiving mode and 81 mW in the transmitting mode under a supply voltage of 1.8 V, including 30 mW consumed by the frequency synthesizer. The total chip area with pads is 2.7 × 4.2 mm^2.展开更多
