A miniaturized silicon-based ground ring guarded patch resonator and filter
(2005)
A new miniaturized ground ring guided microstrip patch filter developed on the silicon wafer using micromachined technology is reported. The ground shunt can be used to lower the operating frequency up to one-third as ...
A compact size coupling controllable filter with separate electric and magnetic coupling paths
(2006)
This paper presents the characteristics of a miniaturized microstrip filter, which has two separate coupling paths: electric coupling path and magnetic coupling path between two resonators. Either magnetic coupling or ...
Scalable model of on-wafer interconnects for high-speed CMOS ICs
(2006)
This paper describes the development of an equivalent circuit model of on-wafer interconnects for high-speed CMOS integrated circuits. By strategically cascading two- blocks together, the lumped model can characterize the ...
Design and optimization of the extended true single-phase clock-based prescaler
(2006)
The power consumption and operating frequency of the extended true single-phase clock (E-TSPC)-based frequency divider is investigated. The short-circuit power and the switching power in the E-TSPC-based divider are ...
Sensitivity analysis of coupled interconnects for RFIC applications
(2006)
This paper investigates the sensitivity of on-wafer coupled interconnects to the Si CMOS process parameters. Experiments are conducted to emulate state-of-the-art and future technologies. Some important parameters ...
Sub-1 V low power wide range injection-locked frequency divider
(2007)
In this letter, the sub-1 V low power, wide range operation of an injection-locked frequency divider with a common-gate configuration is presented. The performances in terms of locking range and power consumption have been ...
9.3–10.4-GHz-band cross-coupled complementary oscillator with low phase-noise performance
(2004)
A fully integrated 10-GHz-band voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) has been designed and fabricated using
