Abstract
We propose a UWB transmitter (TX) SoC designed for ultra-low voltage (ULV) in 28nm FDSOI CMOS. Operated at 0.55V, it achieves a record energy efficiency of 14pJ/bit with embedded power management (PM), highly duty cycled digital baseband, programmable pulse shaping and wide-range on-chip adaptive forward back biasing (FBB) for VT reduction, PVT compensation and tuning of both the carrier frequency (CF) and the output power.
