Abstract
- A 0.5–15 GHz ultra-wideband (UWB) RF reconfigurable receiver in UMC 28 nm CMOS used for IR-UWB (impulse radio UWB) radar system is proposed in this paper. This receiver employs a 0.5–8 GHz path and an 8–15 GHz path to achieve the wide frequency band, and we proposed an RF channel select voltage-to-time converter (VTC) circuit. Two different low noise amplifiers (LNAs) are adopted in the two paths to obtain the high performance of noise figure (NF) and gain. The common drain stage and resistance negative feedback technology as well as the source degeneration inductive technology are introduced to achieve a high flat gain and fine input matching. The R-2R variable load network of a programable gain amplifier (PGA) gives it a nearly 24 dB dynamic range and approximately linear gain control. A 500MS/s time domain analog to digital converter (TD-ADC) with an equivalent sampling rate of 16GS/s is shared for the two paths which can realize the direct RF sampling. The input RF signal path selection is implemented by configuring the Band_sel signal. The receiver has reconfigurability of the RF front end and better power consumption and area. In the frequency of 0.5–8 GHz, the S11 is below −7.9 dB and the NF is smaller than 6 dB. In the frequency of 8–15 GHz, the S11 is below −8dB and the NF is smaller than 11 dB. The receiver dissipates 242.72mW with an area of 1.01 mm2 [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
