A highly integrated low-power analog filter in 0.13,mu m CMOS able to be reconfigured in order to be used in UMTS and WLAN applications is reported.

Abstract
A highly integrated low-power analog filter in 0.13,mu m CMOS able to be reconfigured in order to be used in UMTS and WLAN applications is reported. The 4th order low-pass continuous-time filter is. embedded in the receiver path. The filter is made up by the cascade of 2 Active G(m)-RC low-pass biquadratic cells. The use of Active G(m)-RC cells guarantees low power performance since they use low f(u) opamps. Thus, it presents low cost and low power characteristics. In fact, a little area overhead is required since the filter can share capacitors as well as opamps in both operations modesI documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
