    摘要: A balanced transconductor having a pair of voltage inputs and a pair of current outputs comprises a pair of single-ended transconductors, one in each signal path and a cancellation network. The cancellation network cancels at the inputs to the single-ended transconductors a common mode voltage appearing at the voltage inputs so that no common mode output current results. The cancellation network may comprise four half-size single-ended transconductors drawing half the supply current of full-size single-ended transconductors.

    摘要: A system and method are provided for reducing the current consumption of receivers such as direct conversion receivers associated with modem receiver systems as well as low IF receiver systems, among others. The system and method dramatically reduce the current consumption in receivers due to three factors. 1) Since the filter 302 also performs the VGA function, the current consumption of the VGA 304 is eliminated; 2) Since the gain partitioning of the structure 200 depicted in FIG. 2 is superior, the noise performance of the filter 302 is greatly reduced; and the base band LNA 304 can be eliminated, also eliminating the current consumption of the base band LNA 304; and 3) The folded gm structure 500 depicted in FIG. 5 can be used, cutting the current consumption of the base band filter 302 by a factor of two. The structure 200 notably does require control circuitry to set the gm values of the forward and feedback paths independently. The current consumption of this control circuitry however, is far less than the current saved due to the three factors discussed herein above. The base band circuitry current consumption can be reduced by about a factor or three by implementing the structure 200.

    摘要: A variable gain transconductance amplifier wherein complimentary input followers are used in conjunction with the multiplier to provide a high input impedance. A pair of multiplier input devices are embedded in the input followers to reduce the supply voltage used by the multiplier and to improve signal handling capability while reducing the supply voltage required. Further, these variable gain transconductance amplifiers are used in active filters to provide adjustment of the bandwidth without affecting the center frequency.

    摘要: An integrator is described that is useful in forming low pass, band pass, high pass, and band stop filters. The integrator comprises a transconductance amplifier and a capacitor which is connected between the amplifier output terminal and the amplifier ground. When implemented as a monolithic IC, the integrator gain is fundamentally process independent. A ladder structure comprising one or more of these integrators provides high order filtering characteristics without many of the problems associated with conventional filter devices. In addition, the integrator provides stop band, zero filter characteristics at the filter output terminal when a capacitor is connected across the differential input terminals of the integrator.

    摘要: Improved common mode feedback is provided in differential amplifying-type gyrator filters. One specific implementation is directed to a signal-filtering circuit arrangement, comprising a transconductance cell, and a common mode feedback circuit including MOS-based transistors arranged to minimize loading on the transconductance cell. The transconductance cell has first and second current paths, each passing current between power terminals. The common mode feedback circuit includes a high-impedance circuit configured and arranged to compare a sampled common mode voltage to a reference voltage and to provide common mode feedback to the transconductance cell with minimized loading, and further includes a signal-sampling circuit for sampling the common mode voltage of the transconductance cell using a high impedance isolation arrangement of MOS-type transistors. The above implementation is especially useful in connection with integration of such filters as part of IC applications, while providing superior filter linearity and stopband rejection.
