Abstract :
This paper presents a low-power, low-cost transceiver for multi-standard applications (ANT+, BLE) in the 2.4GHz Industrial, Scientific and Medical band. Using analog intensive design techniques it achieves 46dB front-end gain, 5.6dB NF, -36dBm IP1dB in RX, +2dBm in TX complying with FCC, ETSI class 2 and ARIB regulations while consuming 5.0mA from a 3V supply using only two external matching network (and 5 overall) external components. The entire transceiver solution occupies 1.2mm2 in a 130nm CMOS node. A fully integrated nanoamp power management module is implemented along with various RF/analog built in self-calibration techniques to reduce power consumption and production test cost.
