Transistor Technologies for High Efficiency and Linearity

Differential Topology • Double the available voltage swing • Even-order harmonic suppression • Double the frequency of current injection into substrate –Reduce the potential for LO-pulling • The tail current source is removed from the standard differential pair (this is a “quasi-differential” structure) –DC current set by the biasing of input devices

Phase Locked Loop Circuits

Clock generation: B. Razavi, Design of Analog CMOS Integrated Circuits, Chap. 15, McGraw-Hill, 2001. 1. Definition. A PLL is a feedback system that includes a VCO, phase detector, and low pass filter within its loop. Its purpose is to force the VCO to replicate and track the frequency and phase at the input when in lock.

BASICS OF THE SPECTRUM ANALYZER - UC Santa Barbara

Fourier ⋅ π → − + + Now instead of a bank of narrow filters, we shall have one narrow filter centered at a fixed frequency, say fI, and we shall scan the signal spectrum across this filter by multiplying x(t) by a sinusoid of varying frequency f0. See Figure 1. …

equations. The syntax is: gp_circle(S, gain, # points on circle) where S is the S-parameter matrix. Let’s illustrate. In the example below, a table is used to display frequency, maximum stable gain (MSG), the stability factor, k, and the magnitude of delta. The gain circles are at MSG (MaxGain1 in this case), and 1 and 2 dB below MSG.

Quality factor, Q

When a resonant circuit is connected to the outside world, its total losses (let’s call them RP or GP) are combined with the source and load resistances, RS and RL. For example, Here is a parallel resonant circuit (C,L and RP)connected to the outside. The total Q of this circuit is called the loaded Q or QL and is given by

Operational Amplifiers - Learn About Electronics

Op amps are basically negative feedback (NFB) DC amplifiers. The op amp has a very large gain, the output can be hundreds of thousands times larger than the input. This huge gain however, is reduced using negative feedback to produce a circuit whose gain is stable and independent of the semiconductor characteristics.

Operational transconductance amplifiers (OTAs) are often among the least understood analog components. However, these devices serve a very useful function that is being implemented on a regular basis in many integrated circuits as an element for more advanced purposes; the current feedback amplifier is among the most prominent example.
