The input radio frequency (RF)band, local oscillator(LO)frequency band and output IF are 5.15 to 5.35, 4.15 to 4.35 and 1 GHz, respectively. Source resistive degeneration technique and pseudo-differential Gilbert topology are used to achieve high linearity, and, current bleeding technique and LC resonant loads are used to acquire a low noise figure. In addition, the mixer adopts a common-source transistor pair cross-stacked with a source follow pair(CSSF)circuit as an output buffer to enhance the mixer's conversion gain but not deteriorate the other performances. The mixer is implemented in 0.18 μm RF CMOS(complementary metal oxide semiconductor transistor)technology and the chip area of the mixer including all bonding pads is 580 μm×1 185 μm. The measured results show that under a 1.8 V supply, the conversion gain is 10.1 dB; the input 1 dB compression point and the input-referred third-order intercept point are-3.5 and 5.3 dBm, respectively; the single side band (SSB)noise figure (NF)is 8.65 dB, and the core current consumption is 3.8 mA.展开更多

The samples are manufactured with the standards of 0.35 μm CMOS technology. Two samples have been irradiated un-biased by 23 MeV protons with fluences of 1.43 × 10^11 protons/cm^2 and 2.14 × 10^11 protons/cm-2,respectively, while another sample has been exposed un-biased to 65 krad(Si) ^60Co γ-ray. The influences of radiation on the dark current, fixed-pattern noise under illumination, quantum efficiency, and conversion gain of the samples are investigated. The dark current, which increases drastically, is obtained by the theory based on thermal generation and the trap induced upon the irradiation. Both γ-ray and proton irradiation increase the non-uniformity of the signal, but the nonuniformity induced by protons is even worse. The degradation mechanisms of CMOS APS image sensors are analyzed,especially for the interaction induced by proton displacement damage and total ion dose(TID) damage.展开更多

To reduce the settling time and meanwhile suppress the reference spurs, we employ a wide-band single-path PLL and a narrow-band dual-path PLL in a transient state and a steady state, respectively, by changing the loop bandwidth according to the gain of voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) and the resister of the loop filter. The hybrid PLL is implemented in a 0.18-μm complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) process with a total die area of 1.4×0.46 mm2. The measured results exhibit a reference spur level of lower than -73 dB with a reference frequency of 10 MHz and a settling time of 20 μs with 40 MHz frequency jump at 2 GHz. The total power consumption of the hybrid PLL is less than 27 mW with a supply voltage of 1.8 V.展开更多

The conventional cross-coupled n-type metal oxide semiconductor (NMOS) transistors are replaced by p-type metal oxide semiconductor (PMOS) transistors to decrease the phase noise in the core part of the crystal oscillator. A symmetry structure of the current mirror is adopted to increase the stability of direct current. The amplitude detecting circuit made up of a single- stage CMOS operational transconductance amplifier (OTA) and a simple amplitude detector is used to improve the current accuracy of the output signals. The chip is fabricated in a 0. 18- pxn CMOS process, and the total chip size is 0. 35 mm x 0. 3 mm. Under a supply voltage of 1.8 V, the measured power consumption is 3.6 mW including the output buffer for 50 testing loads. The proposed crystal oscillator exhibits a low phase noise of - 134. 7 dBc/Hz at 1-kHz offset from the center frequency of 37. 5 MHz.展开更多
