Abstract :
A fully integrated super-regenerative receiver in 0.13mum CMOS with on-chip quench generation is described. Auto-calibration improves the selectivity of a Q-enhanced filter and the sensitivity of super-regeneration. The prototype consumes 2.8mW, or 5.6nJ per received bit, at 500kb/s, and has a turn-on time of 83.6mus, a channel spacing of 10MHz, and a sensitivity of -90dBm
