Abstract
This paper presents a fully integrated RF front-end with an automatic gain control (AGC) scheme and a digitally controlled radio frequency varied gain amplifier (RFVGA) for a U/V band China Mobile Multimedia Broadcasting (CMMB) direct conversion receiver.The RFVGA provides a gain range ofS0 dB with a 1.6 dB step.The adopted AGC strategy could improve immunity to adjacent channel signal,which is of importance for CMMB application.The front-end,composed of a low noise amplifier (LNA),an RFVGA,a mixer and AGC,achieves an input referred 3rd order intercept point (IIP3) of 4.9 dBm with the LNA in low gain mode and the RFVGA in medium gain mode,and a less than 4 dB double side band noise figure with both the LNA and the RFVGA in high gain mode.The proposed RF front-end is fabricated in a 0.35 μm SiGe BiCMOS technology and consumes 25.6 mA from a 3.0 V power supply.关键词
