Using current mode structure, the proposed bandgap circuit has a minimum voltage of 900mV. Compensated through the VEB linearization technique, this bandgap reference can reach a temperature coefficient of 10ppmFC from 0 to 150℃. With a 1.1V supply voltage,the supply current is 43μA and the PSRR is 55dB at DC frequency. This bandgap reference has been verified in a UMC 0.18μm mixed mode CMOS technology and occupies 0. 186mm^2 of chip area.展开更多

No diodes and parasitic bipolar junction transistors (BJTs) are used. The proposed voltage reference uses a current-mode topology by summing a PTAT current and a CTAT current into a re- sistor to generate the required reference voltage. It can also provide more than one reference voltage output, which is quite suitable for systems requiring many different reference voltages simultaneously. The occupied chip area is 0. 023mm^-2 . The operation supply voltage is from 2.5 to 6V, and the maximum supply current is 8.25μA. The designed three different out- puts are respectively about 203mV, 1.0V, and 2.05V at room temperature when the supply voltage is 4V. The circuit achieves a temperature coefficient of 31ppm/℃ in the temperature range of 0 to 100℃ and an average line regulation of ± 0. 203%/V. The voltage reference has been successfully applied in a white LED backlight driver chip.展开更多

A series of novel methods are proposed in this paper.Two band DCOs with high frequency resolution are utilized to cover the frequency band of interest, which is as wide as 2.5 to 5 GHz. An overflow counter is proposed to prevent the "pulse-swallowing" phenomenon so as to significantly reduce the locking time. A NTW-clamp digital module is also proposed to prevent the overflow of the loop control word. A modified programmable divider is presented to prevent the failure operation at the boundary.The measurement results show that the output frequency range of this frequency synthesizer is 0.8–4.2 GHz. The locking time achieves a reduction of 84% at 2.68 GHz. The best in-band and out-band phase noise performances have reached –100 d Bc/Hz, and –125 d Bc/Hz respectively. The lowest reference spur is –58 d Bc.展开更多
