Abstract :
Design and analysis of a RF transmit/receive switch in 180nm CMOS RF process for 2.4GHz transceiver is presented. LC resonance along with stacked gate architecture is presented for designing the T/R switch. The switch exhibited excellent performance in terms of insertion loss, isolation linearity and gain. The switch added minimum noise by itself during the input and output switching and achieved stability throughout the operating rang at 2.4GHz. The designed switch exhibits -48.73dB and -79.04dB insertion loss during receiver and transmitter mode respectively. The isolation between non-used ports is -96.27 in both mode of operation. The designed switch handles more than 20 dBm power at 2.4 GHz frequency.
