Abstract :
We describe the design of a fifth order opamp-RC filter in a 65 nm digital CMOS process. Designed for a WLAN receiver chain, the baseband filter has a bandwidth of 9 MHz and features extensive use of digital hardware to correct for analog imperfections and thereby relaxing area and power requirements. Measurements show a 24 dB adjacent channel attenuation and an out-of-band IIP3 of 33 dBm. The complete filter consumes 9.5 mA from a 1.3 V supply and occupies an area of 0.46 mm2.
