Abstract :
A new bandpass track-and-hold (BP-T/H) open loop architecture is developed as a single stage monolithic circuit with low voltage power supply. The sampling of 912 MHz RF-signal with 100 MS/s is demonstrated by Spectre-Cadence-4.4.6 simulations on 0.35 μm RF-SiGe/BiCMOS process of Texas Instruments.
