Abstract

A fully integrated frequency synthesizer that generates multiple frequencies for use in frequency channelized receivers is designed in 0.25 μm CMOS technology. Many of the unique features of this receiver have been exploited to design a highly integrated and power efficient multi-output frequency synthesizer, including poly-phase filters. The synthesizer generates 4, 5, 6, and 7 GHz signals while dissipating 120 mW.
