A four-stage 60 GHz low-noise amplifier is implemented in 65 nm CMOS with nMOS ft of 210 GHz. The LNA incorporates a reflection-type attenuator to provide variable gain with improved linearity in low-gain mode and a tunable notch filter for image rejection. The LNA, which consists of two common-source stages followed by two cascode stages, consumes 30.8 mW and achieves 5.9 dB NF and 15 dB gain at 60 GHz. The variable attenuator provides 10 dB of gain variation with the input-referred 1 dB compression point of the LNA being -15.1 dBm in high gain mode and -6 dBm in the low-gain mode. Each tunable notch filter stage provides an additional 8 dB attenuation of 37 GHz image signals, with the four-stage LNA achieving more than 35 dB image-rejection.

We propose a novel 300 MHz embedded flash memory for dual-core microcontrollers targeting shared ROM architecture. One of the features is a three-stage pipeline read operation, which enables reduced access pitch and therefore reduced performance penalty due to shared ROM access conflict. The second feature is a highly sensitive sense amplifier that achieves efficient pipeline operation with two-cycle latency one-cycle pitch because of a shortened sense time of 0.63 ns. The combination of the pipeline architecture and the proposed sense amplifiers achieves significant reduction in access-conflict penalties with shared ROM and enhanced performance of 32-bit RISC dual-core microcontrollers by 30%.

This paper proposes a dual-section average (DSA) analog-to-digital converter (ADC) to achieve a closed-loop digital pulse width modulation (DPWM) DC-DC converter with performance compatible to that by the analog PWM converter. For a 2.4 V input voltage, a regulated output voltage of 1.2 V can provide output current of 600 mA without any off-chip compensators. Besides, the output ripple can be reduced to about 8 mVp-p by theoretical result. The test chip was fabricated in 0.35 mum CMOS technology. Owing to the parasitic resistance, the output ripple of the experimental result is within 8 mVp-p. Furthermore, the transient recovery time is within 50 mus when load current changes from 120 mA to 600 mA, or vice versa.

In this paper, we report a single-loop delay-locked loop (DLL) using a novel OR-AND duty-cycle correction (DCC) circuit. The proposed OR-AND DCC circuit employs both an analog blocks to detect duty error precisely and a digital block to control duty-error easily. To prove the proposed concepts, a single-loop DLL employing the proposed OR-AND DCC is demonstrated with SPICE simulation. The DLL using 0.1-mum CMOS process provides clocks with 16-psec peak-to-peak jitter at 1-GHz operating frequency and spends 20-mA bias current at 1.8-V power supply. The proposed DCC has the accuracy of plusmn1 % for plusmn25 % duty error and 300 cycles duty-correction time in the range of 100 MHz -1.3 GHz operating frequencies.

An on-chip transient-to-digital converter for system-level electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection is proposed. The proposed transient-to-digital converter is designed to detect fast electrical transients during the system-level ESD events. The output digital thermometer codes can correspond to different ESD voltages under system-level ESD tests. The experimental results in a 0.18-mum CMOS integrated circuit (IC) with 3.3-V devices have confirmed the detection function and digital output codes.

A 5.8 Gb/s/pin DRAM with unidirectional differential I/Os and 1 Gbit memory core was designed and 23.2 GB/s memory module was assembled. Tx BER measurement on an electrical test board similar to real memory sub-systempsilas environment was performed and the results show that no additional coding for the differential I/O protection, like CRC, seems to be required up to 5.8 Gb/s/pin operation. Also, an efficient timing usage method using matched path for a possible implementation of CRC computation in ODIC architecture was proposed.

A PMOS-based active inductor circuit for high-speed I/O applications is presented. The active inductor can operate with low voltage headroom and requires no voltage boosting. A prototype output driver circuit using the active inductor is implemented in 90 nm CMOS. The peaking frequency and its corresponding gain magnitude of the active-inductor circuit can be adjusted to facilitate channel loss compensation. Operating at 10 Gb/s over a 6-in FR4 channel, as compared to the case when the active-inductor structure is disabled, the use of active inductor circuit in the transmitter side increases the vertical eye opening at the receiver side by a factor of two and reduces the peak-to-peak jitter of the received data by 30%. By keeping the current of the active inductor above a certain value, impedance variations are minimized and appropriate impedance matching is achieved (S22 less than -10 dB). The active-inductor circuit occupies 17 times 25 mum2 and has a low overhead power consumption of 0.8 mW, i.e., ~10% of the overall power of the prototype output driver.

A combined Time-to-Digital Digital-to-Time Converter (TDC-DTC) is presented for use in a high-precision single-bit Asynchronous DeltaSigma ADC. It quantizes the 1-bit asynchronous square wave with 61 ps precision, obtaining a virtual sampling frequency of 16.4 GHz with only a 350 MHz clock. Measurements confirm that with this precision, the design of a single-bit Asynchronous DeltaSigma ADC obtaining 78 dB SNDR over a 500 kHz bandwidth is feasible using only a first-order noise shaping and with a limit cycle frequency of only 8 MHz. With this technique, both the order and the bandwidth requirements of the noise shaping filter can be relaxed, which significantly reduces the analog complexity of the DeltaSigma Modulator. The proposed architecture is therefore especially suited for low-voltage nanometer technologies.

A 6th order RF bandpass SigmaDelta ADC operating on the 2.4 GHz ISM band is presented. The bandpass loop filter is based on digitally programmable Gm-LC resonators. By using a mirrored-image sampling technique, the clock frequency is reduced to 3 GS/s, thereby reducing the power consumption. Implemented in a standard 90 nm CMOS process, the IC achieves 40 dB and 62 dB of SNDR and SFDR respectively on a 60 MHz bandwidth with 40 mW of power consumption.
