Abstract :
This article presents a CMOS receiver that works for 3-5GHz low band SC-UWB. The receiver contains PLL, Mixer, and VGA. Double down conversion is adopted in the receiver to overcome the orthogonal clock design difficulty; digital assisted RF control method is used to increase the stability. This receiver was fabricated in SMIC01.8mmRF process with chip area of 1 × 1 mm2 ;according to measurement, this receiver has bandwidth of 500MHz; VGA control range is 30dB; IIP3 is -10dBm;IF port output is 250mVp-p; the power consumption is 36mW with supplying voltage 1.8V.
