Parallel PWMs based fully digital transmitter with wide carrier frequency range. [PDF]
The carrier‐frequency (CF) and intermediate‐frequency (IF) pulse‐width modulators (PWMs) based on delay lines are proposed, where baseband signals are conveyed by both positions and pulse widths or densities of the carrier clock. By combining IF‐PWM and precorrected CF‐PWM, a fully digital transmitter with unit‐delay autocalibration is implemented in ...

Design of a high‐performance advanced phase locked loop with high stability external loop filter
Abstract For this task, an improved phase locked loop (PLL) was developed using a more sophisticated phase‐frequency detector with multiband flexible dividers that provide enhanced frequency resolution, a better spectrum, and a better output signal. Great timing jitter was the problem for the old PLL designs because of the unbalanced frequency transfer

A 190.3‐dBc/Hz FoM 16‐GHz rotary travelling‐wave oscillator with reliable direction control
Abstract This letter presents a rotary travelling‐wave oscillator (RTWO) with reliable direction control in a standard 130 nm complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor (CMOS) technology. To achieve low phase noise (PN), and low power consumption, 16‐stages customised transmission line segments are designed and simulated on electromagnetic tools.

Master‐Slave Topologies with Phase‐Locked Loops
Since phase‐locked loops (PLLs) were conceived by Bellescize in 1932, their presence has become almost mandatory in any telecommunication device or network, being the essential element to recover frequency and phase information. As the technology developed, PLL appeared in several applications, such as, dense communication networks, smart grids ...

Output-jitter performance of second-order digital bang-bang phase-locked loops with nonaccumulative reference clock jitter [PDF]
Bang-bang phase-locked loops (BBPLLs) are inherently nonlinear systems due to the binary phase detector (BPD). While they are typically used for clock and data recovery, the ongoing trend toward digital loop implementations has resulted in several ...

A Low Power Impedance Transparent Receiver with Linearity Enhancement Technique for IoT Applications
A low power receiver with impedance transparent RF front end is presented. By using the 4‐path passive mixer and the active feedback of LNA, the baseband impedance profile is further transferred to receiver input. While a LO‐defined input matching is formed by RF front end, the linearity of entire receiver chain is improved.
