This program is suitable for digital phase locked loop (DPLL) drive technology that proposed in other papers. In addition the program adopts an adaptive filtering algorithm, which selects the in-phase and quadrature components that are outputs of the DPLL of the SMG's drive mode as reference signals to update the amplitude of the in-phase and quadrature components of the input signal by iteratively. An objective of the program is to minimize the mean square error of the accurate amplitudes and the estimated amplitudes of SMG's detection mode. The simulation and test results prove the feasibility of the program that lays the foundation for the further improvement of the SMG's system performance and the implementation of the SMG system's self-calibration and self-demarcation in future.展开更多

The transconductance stage of the mixer is implemented by an AC-coupled self-bias current reuse topology. On-chip series inductors are employed at the gate terminals of the differential input transconductance stage to improve the voltage gain by enhancing the effective transconductance. The chip is implemented in 65-nm LP CMOS technology. The demod- ulator is designed for an input radio frequency (RF) band ranging from 10.25 to 13.75 GHz. A fixed LO frequency of 12 GHz down-converts the RF band to an intermediate frequency (IF) band ranging from DC to 1.75 GHz. From 10 MHz to 1.75 GHz the demodulator achieves a voltage conversion gain (VCG) ranging from 14.2 to 13.2 dB, and a minimum single-sideband N F (SSB-NF) of 9 dB. The measured third-order input intercept point (lIP3) is -3.3 dBm lbr a two-tone test frequency spacing of 1 MHz. The mixer alone draws a current of only 2.5 mA, whereas the complete demodulator draws a current of 7.18 mA from a 1.2 V supply. The measurement results for a frequency divider, which was fabricated individually, prior to being integrated with the quadrature demodulator, in 65-rim LP CMOS technology, are also presented in this paper.展开更多
