    A V-band VCO using fT-doubling technique in 0.18-μm CMOS
    (2011-12-08) Yen-Hung Kuo; Jeng-Han Tsai; Tian-Wei Huang; Huei Wang
    A low supply voltage V-band voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) using fT-doubling technique is presented in this paper. The proposed VCO is fabricated in 0.18-μm CMOS technology. The proposed VCO adopts the fT-doubling technique to eliminate the gate-to-source capacitance of cross-coupled pair of VCO. The oscillation frequency of VCO can be increased due to the parasitic capacitance is eliminated. The measured results show that the proposed VCO have tuning range of 0.74 GHz from 58.09-to-58.83 GHz. The proposed VCO consumes 4 mW dc power from 1.2 V supply voltage.

    Admittance-Transforming Injection-Locked Frequency Divider and Low-Supply-Voltage Current Mode Logic Divider
    (2010-12-10) Yen-Hung Kuo; Jeng-Han Tsai; Wei-Hung Chou; Tian-Wei Huang
    A injection-locked frequency divider (ILFD) with a 0.8-V current mode logic (CML) frequency divider are presented in this paper. These two frequency dividers are fabricated and integrated in 0.13-μm CMOS technology. The proposed ILFD adopts the admittance-transforming to widen the locking range. To achieve low-supply-voltage in CML frequency divider, the transconductance stage of CML divider is replaced by the inductance. Under 0 dBm injected power, the measured results show that the proposed ILFD have 22.8 % bandwidth from 40.5-to-50.9 GHz. Furthermore, the divider-by-four frequency divider composed of an ILFD and CML divider are measured with locking range from 42 to 45 GHz. The ILFD and CML divider consume 3.6 mW and 8 mW dc power from 0.6 V and 0.8 V supply voltage, respectively.

    An ultra low-power 24 GHz phase-lock-loop with low phase-noise VCO embedded in 0.18-μm CMOS process
    (2011-12-08) Yu-Hsuan Lin; Jeng-Han Tsai; Yen-Hung Kuo; Tian-Wei Huang
    A 24 GHz 29.8 mW Phase-lock-loop using 0.18 μm CMOS technology is presented in this paper. To achieve the low-power issue and low phase-noise performance, a transformer feedback voltage control oscillator and a cascoded divider of injection-locked frequency divider and current mode logic divider for low voltage and low power are implemented. The phase-lock-loop phase noise was measured by -122 dBc/Hz at 10 MHz offset with low supply voltage and equipped the locking range of 20.80-23.37 GHz. The PLL dissipate 29.8 mW (only 13.3 mW in VCO + ILFD) and occupies the total area of 0.39 mm2 without off-chip loop filter.

    A 24-GHz 3.8-dB NF Low-Noise Amplifier with Built-In Linearizer
    (2010-12-10) Yen-Hung Kuo; Jeng-Han Tsai; Wei-Hung Chou; Tian-Wei Huang
    A K-band low-noise amplifier with built-in linearizer using 0.18-μm CMOS technology is presented in this paper. To achieve good linearity at high frequency, a distributed derivative superposition linearization technique is used. The measured results show that the improvement of IIP3 and IM3 are 5.3 dB and 10.6 dB at 24 GHz, respectively. The proposed LNA has a noise figure of 3.8 dB and a peak gain of 13.7 dB while consuming 18 mW dc power. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first LNA with a built-in linearizer above 20 GHz in CMOS.

    Design and analysis of a 77.3% locking-range divide-by-4 frequency divider
    (IEEE Microwave Theory and Techniques Society, 2011-10-01) Yen-Hung Kuo; Jeng-Han Tsai; Hong-Yeh Chang; Tian-Wei Huang
    A cascoded frequency divider (FD) with division number of 4 and ultra-wide locking range is presented in this paper. The proposed FD consists of a divide-by-2 (D2) injection-locked frequency divider (ILFD) core and a D2 source-injection current mode logic (SICML) divider. After the cascoded integration of ILFD and SICML, the removal of transconductance and buffer stages can lower the dc power consumption and widen the locking range. The proposed FD is implemented in 0.13-μm CMOS technology and has a 77.3% frequency locking range from 13.5 to 30.5 GHz at injection power of 0 dBm while consuming 7.3-mW dc power. Compared to the previously reported ILFDs, the proposed circuit achieves the widest locking range without employing extra tuning mechanism.
