Development of Cmos Coplanar Waveguide Matching Circuit for Rf Front-end

چکیده
For realizing a single chip microwave front-end, we studied the new design theory of impedance matching circuits for a Si-CMOS low noise amplifier (LNA) or power amplifier (PA), which are composed of coplanar waveguide (CPW) meanderline resonators and impedance inverters. We also present the simulated performances of CMOS-LNA or PA connected with input and output matching circuits. Finally, we designed the trial chip for 2.4GHz wireless LAN (IEEE 802.11b) system.

متن کاملElectrically Small Antennas with Miniaturized Impedance Matching Circuits for Semiconductor Amplifiers
In order to reduce the size of a wireless system, we propose a design theory for the broadband impedance matching circuit which connects an electrically small antenna (ESA) to a semiconductor amplifier. We confirmed its validity for the case of connection between a small slot loop antenna with a small radiation resistance of Ra = 0.776Ω and a semiconductor amplifier with high input impedance of...

Recently, spiral inductors have widely been used instead of resistors in the design of matching circuits to enhance the thermal noise performance of a wireless transceiver. However, such elements usually have low quality factor (Q) and may encounter the self-resonance in microwave-frequency band which permits its use in higher frequencies, and on the other hand, they occupy the large on-chip sp...

On-chip distributed transmission line resonators in CMOS technology have become the interest of research subjects recently (Ono et al. 2001; Umeda et al., 1994; Kanaya et al., 2006; Wolf, 2006) because of their size which becomes more compact, as the frequency of application increases. Among the various transmission lines, coplanar waveguide (CPW) has more engineering applications (Toyoda, 1996...
متن کاملDevelopment of Electrically Small Planar Antennas with Matching Circuit
We designed and fabricated an electrically small antenna (ESA) with coplanar waveguide (CPW) matching circuit. Matching circuit is realized by using interdigital gap and transmission line. We designed ESA with the aid of the commercial three-dimensional electro magnetic field simulator. We also made experiments on the ESA with CPW matching circuits using patterned circuit board.
