Abstract
In this paper a 11MHz-f@-3dB continuous-time analog filter is presented. A low-noise circuital topology has been used based on typical Active-RC cells, like opamp-based integrators, and Active-Gm-RC biquadratic cell. The basic idea is to synthesize two complex poles pairs (4th-Order Filter) using a single compact Active RC cell, which minimizes the in-band noise power contributions. A filter prototype, complying with WLAN baseband requirements, has been designed in CMOS 90nm technology. Thanks to noise power spectral density reduction - 48μVrms output integrated noise (100kHz÷11MHz) at 0dB-pass-band gain - wide Dynamic Range (84dB@THD>;40dBc) is performed. In-band IIP3 is 10dBm, while the filter power consumption is 14mW.
