Abstract

A fully integrated noncoherent IR-UWB CMOS receiver is implemented using 0.18 μm CMOS technology.To remove the bulky and lossy external balun, the receiver contains single to differential circuit embedded in low-noise amplifier (LNA) stages. The LNA stage also includes a tunable LC load for band selection. The measured results show that the sensitivity is −78.9 dBm at 1 Mbps in condition of BER of 10^–3. The chip size is 2.3 mm × 1.3 mm including pads. The consumed current is 20 mA at 1.8 V supply. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
