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 ...

This paper presents a soft-switching DC-DC boost converter, which can be utilized in renewable energy systems such as photovoltaic array, and wind turbine connections to infinite bus of a big power network, using grid connected inverters. In the proposed topology for the DC-DC boost converter, the main and the auxiliary power switches are turned on and turned off with zero voltage switching (ZV...

In this paper, an all-digital Power Amplifier (PA) that is tunable and fully-integrated on chip using 0.18μm CMOS is presented. The PA is designed using all-digital output-connected inverters controlled by a multi-phase clock generated using a multi-stage phase interpolator. Experimentally, in addition to the advantage of being alldigital and tunable, the PA consumed around 0.03mW/MHz, which is...

multilevel inverters has big placement advantages in power electronics and its application can be mentioned to facts tools such as upfc – d-statcom. therefore, nowadays multilevel inverters have created vast field’s research and researchers are trying to present appropriate structures with fewer keys and greater advantages. the main advantages of multilevel inverters mentioned are low-key volta...
