A 6.0-mW 10.0-Gb/s Receiver With Switched-Capacitor Summation DFE

Switched Capacitor Filter

A Switched Capacitor circuit is an electronic circuit element used for discrete time signal processing. It works by moving charges into and out of capacitors when switches are opened and closed. Usually, nonoverlapping signals are used to control the switches, so that not all switches are closed simultaneously. Filters implemented with these elements are termed switched capacitor filters. Unlik...

A 1.2 V and 69 mW 60 GHz Multi-channel Tunable CMOS Receiver Design

A multi-channel receiver operating between 56 GHz and 70 GHz for coverage of different 60 GHz bands worldwide is implemented with a 90 nm Complementary Metal-Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) process. The receiver containing an LNA, a frequency down-conversion mixer and a variable gain amplifier incorporating a bandpass filter is designed and implemented. This integrated receiver is tested at four cha...

Companding Switched Capacitor Filters

In this paper, two possible switched capacitor implementations of companding lters are discussed. The governing di erence equations, an estimate of the increase in the dynamic range for a given power consumption and possible topologies are given.

Simulating Switched-Capacitor Filters with SpectreRF

Version 6c, 28 July 2006 SpectreRF provides powerful and unique new analyses that offer designers of switchedcapacitor filters the ability to predict the performance of their circuits in ways that were not previously possible. It allows designers to quickly and directly predict the transfer and noise characteristics of filters described at the transistor level while including all of the importa...
