Abstract

The design of complex analog front-ends demands the exploration of a huge design space at different levels of abstraction and using a multitude of simulators. One of the main issues is to guarantee the consistency of the models and the model parameters between the different abstraction levels.A methodology and a tool, called NETLISP, has been developed for the purpose of guaranteeing the consistency between different levels of abstraction. The tool was successfully applied to the design of a multi-mode multi-band analog front-end, showing its applicability on real large-scale designs.

Low-power current-reused RF front-end based on optimized transformers topology

This paper discusses the design, analysis and performance of a 2.4GHz fully integrated low-power current-reused receiver front-end implemented in 0.18@mm CMOS technology. The front-end is composed of a single-to-differential low-noise amplifier (LNA), ...
A highly linear receiver front-end employing modified derivative superposition method with tuned inductors for 5.25GHz

We design a highly linear CMOS RF receiver front-end operating in the 5GHz band using the modified derivative superposition (DS) method with one- or two-tuned inductors in the low noise amplifier (LNA) and mixer. This method can be used to adjust the ...
A wide-band noise-cancelling direct-conversion balun-LNA-mixer front-end

A wide-band noise-cancelling balun-LNA-mixer front-end for direct conversion receivers is presented in this paper. The proposed circuit exploits an on-chip noise cancelling balun-LNA to achieve low noise figure. This paper presents a novel technique to ...
