Abstract :
The impact of charge injection on system-level performance of discrete-time systems is studied. A new model for MOS switches is derived from Y-parameter simulation and validated with less than 1% difference in respect to transistor. It is a SPICE-based model that helps analog system designers to predict the effects of charge injection on circuit performance. In this work, the model is tested on a discrete-time GSM receiver. The functions analyzed are the mixer stage and the channel selection filter. Results showed extra 0.5 dB side-band attenuation and 0.6 dB less out-of-band rejection in the frequency response of the filter stage.
