  • Abstract
    This work addresses the concurrent on-chip measurement of the gain, the input 1-dB compression point (ICP1-dB), and the input-referred third-order interference point (IIP3) of individual RF building blocks in RF front-end systems, using introduced high speed CMOS RF on-chip amplitude detectors, which work up to 20 GHz with high accuracy, small area, and low power consumption
