    摘要: An integratable transformer circuit for converting an asymmetrical input signal into a pair of symmetrical output signal currents and requiring only one IC connection pin. The circuit exhibits a low input impedance combined with good noise, gain and intermodulation performance up to high frequencies. The asymmetrical input terminal of the circuit is coupled to a node commonly coupled to the emitter of a common base transistor and to the base of a common emitter transistor. The common base transistor acts as a non-inverting current follower, the common emitter transistor as an inverting transimpedance amplifier. An input signal current is transferred to a first symmetrical output terminal via the node and the common base transistor, thereby producing a signal voltage at the node. This signal voltage modulates the collector current of the common emitter transistor, which is in phase opposition to the input signal current and is transferred to the second output terminal.

    摘要: A mixer comprises a MOS transistor having an ideal quadratic characteristic. The transistor is of the D-MOST type and comprises a resistive gate across which a voltage drop is applied transversely to the longitudinal direction of the channel. The adjustment point of the transistor is chosen to be so that the range of the gate voltages between the threshold voltage and the voltage at which the slope reaches the saturation value is always situated during operation within the voltage drop across the gate electrode. The signals to be mixed are introduced capacitively via a second gate electrode situated above the resistive gate electrode and capacitively coupled therewith.

    摘要: In a receiver the input signal is converted by a mixer into two quadrature IF signals. The quadrature IF signals are amplified by an amplifier and filtered by a filter. A polyphase filter suppresses signals having frequencies above a predetermined frequency. A second mixer converts the filtered IF signal into a second IF signal. This second IF signal is filtered by a second polyphase filter which suppresses signals having a frequency below a predetermined frequency. In this way a band-pass transfer function is obtained having a first edge defined by the first polyphase filter and having the second defined by the second polyphase filter. In an embodiment of the invention, the cut off frequencies of the polyphase filters are equal to zero, resulting in a transfer function for the complete receiver having cut off frequencies independent from the component values use in the polyphase filters.

    摘要: A receiver including two sigma delta modulators used to convert a pair of analog quadrature signals into digital quadrature signals. In such sigma delta modulators the quantization noise is shifted into a frequency region in which no signal is present. A cross coupling between the filters is provided to improve the noise reduction without increasing the order of the filters. By providing the cross coupling, it is possible to obtain complex poles and zeros in the noise transfer function which do not have to appear in complex conjugate pairs which results in an increase of the noise suppression in a specified frequency range.
