Problems solved by technology

In the actual application of the RF transmitter, a sufficiently high conversion gain of the up-mixer can greatly reduce the pressure on the power amplifier of the lower stage, but in the case of a large conversion gain, the linearity is usually sacrificed as a price

Abstract

The invention discloses a current injection radio-frequency complementary metal oxide semiconductor transistor (CMOS) orthogonal upper frequency mixer taking parallel liquid crystal (LC) as a load. Based on the traditional double-balanced Gilbert frequency mixer, a current source consisting of a P-type metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) tube is connected at the drain of a trans-conductance level or the source of a switching tube by adopting a current injection mode and used for extracting the current supplied to the switching tube by the trans-conductance level so as to increase the radio-frequency bias current, increase the linearity and gain of a circuit and lighten the problem caused by voltage margin. The PMOS tube is used for current injection, so the current flowing through the vibration transistor is reduced, the output average noise current is reduced and the flicker noise of the frequency mixer is reduced. By adopting an inductor and a capacitor of parallel high-quality factors as loads, the upper frequency mixing function can be realized under low power supply voltage. The frequency mixer improves the linearity, increases the conversion gain and reduces the noise.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of radio frequency integrated circuit design and signal processing, specifically a kind of working in 2.4-2.5GHz, with parallel LC as load current injection radio frequency complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) quadrature up-mixer . Background technique [0002] In recent years, the continuous expansion of the personal communication and wireless mobile communication markets has promoted the development of wireless transceivers in the direction of low cost, low power consumption, high integration and miniaturization. Using CMOS technology to realize monolithic integration of RF system and baseband processing part is the current trend of RF circuit design, reducing the number of off-chip components, thereby reducing power consumption and cost, which is very important in wireless applications. In 1999, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) proposed the WLAN 802.11x stand...
