A CMOS 5.37-mW 10-Bit 200-MS/s Dual-Path Pipelined ADC
A 10b 200MS/s dual-path pipelined ADC is fabricated in standard 65 nm CMOS technology. To reduce the power consumption, we propose a dual-path MDAC structure. We split the signal path into two paths, a coarse stage (CS) and a fine stage (FS). The residue amplification of the MDAC is performed first by the CS, and [...]

New 4-bit transient-to-digital converter for system-level ESD protection in display panels
A new on-chip 4-bit transient-to-digital converter for system-level electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection design is proposed. The proposed converter is designed to detect ESD-induced transient disturbances and transfer different ESD voltages into digital codes under system-level ESD tests. The experimental results in a 0.13-μm CMOS integrated circuit with 1.8-V devices have confirmed the detection function and [...]

Stimulus driver for epilepsy seizure suppression with adaptive loading impedance
A stimulus driver circuit for micro-stimulator used in implantable device was presented in this paper. For epileptic seizure control, the target of the driver was to output 30-μA stimulus currents when the electrode impedance varied within 20 and 200 kΩ. The driver, which consisted of output stage, control block, and adaptor, has been integrated in [...]

A 250 MHz 14 dB-NF 73 dB-Gain 82 dB-DR Analog Baseband Chain With Digital-Assisted DC-Offset Calibration for Ultra-Wideband
A 250 MHz analog baseband chain for Ultra-Wideband was implemented in a 1.2 V0.13 um CMOSprocess. The chip has an active area of 0.8 mm square. In the analog baseband, PGAs and filters are carried out by current-mode amplifiers to achieve wide bandwidth and wide dynamic range of gain, as well as low noise and [...]

A 1.2 V 114 mW Dual-Band Direct-Conversion DVB-H Tuner in 0.13-um CMOS
A fully integrated direct-conversion tuner is implemented in 0.13 um CMOS technology. A broadband noise-canceling balun LNA with the proposed dual cross-coupling technique helps achieve an overall receiver noise figure from 3.7 to 4.3 dB while consuming only 3.6 mW. The proposed current-mode switching scheme improves the achievable SNIR with a gain step of 15 [...]

A 2.4–5.4-GHz Wide Tuning-Range CMOS Reconfigurable Low-Noise Amplifier
A 2.4–5.4-GHz CMOS reconfigurable low-noise amplifier (LNA) is designed. It consists of two stages: a broadband input stage for a steady input matching and noise performance, and a reconfigurable band-selective stage which provides a wide-range frequency tuning from 2.4 to 5.4 GHz and a 12-dB stepped gain with linearity adjustment. The frequency tuning is conducted [...]

A 10-Gbps CMOS Single Chip Optical Receiver with 2-D Meshed Spatially-Modulated Light Detector
This chip describes the design of a 10-Gb/s fully integrated CMOS optical receiver, which consists of a novel spatially-modulated photo detector (SMPD), a low-noise trans-impedance amplifier (TIA), and a post limiting amplifier on a single chip. The bandwidth of proposed meshed SMPD can be boosted up to 6.9 GHz under a reverse-biased voltage of 14.2 [...]

A 3-10 GHz, 14-Band CMOS Frequency Synthesizer with Spurs Reduction for MB-OFDM UWB System
A 3-10 GHz, 14 Band CMOS frequency synthesizer with spurs reduction for MB-OFDM UWB system is presented. Based on a single PLL and two-stage frequency mixing architecture, the image spurs are suppressed below -45dBc and improved by more than 22 dB incorporating with I/Q calibration for the single side band mixers. Implemented in a 0.18-μm [...]

實驗室會議 (May/14)
307 實驗室會議 時間：2012.05.14 (一) 地點：工四館 515R 本次會議討論關於在 307R 裡另隔一間做為機房使用： 1. 於目前工作站放置主機處及電視區，由這2區作為機房使用,再將目前電腦公用區分隔成2部分，一半為電腦公用區,另一半為電視區。 2. 機房的牆面使用木板隔間，並加裝窗戶有玻璃的，已讓外面可以看到機房裡面的狀況，窗戶可以打開,若冷氣不穩定時也可以打開通風。 3. 機房的天花板預計做輕鋼架，以降低天花板高度，並節省冷氣使用。 4. 機房裡要先購置一台分離式冷氣機，室外機必須掛在走廊窗戶 (303 教室旁的窗戶)外。因電機院預計於今年年底或明年年初要更換工四館水冷式冷氣機使用的水塔，屆時更換水塔後實驗室再購置一台水冷式冷氣機。 5. 目前會議室的空間要修改加大一些，並更換會議室裡的座椅。 6. 廖文瑜助理的座位區預計要規劃。 7. 量測實驗室 B23 重新規劃後的區塊配置與說明如下圖所示：
