摘要： A phase-locked loop (PLL) frequency synthesizer (Fig. 3) incorporates fractional spur compensation circuitry. This fractional spur compensation circuitry dynamically compensates charge pump ripple whenever a charge pump operates. It can utilize a programmable divider (336), two phase detectors (314 and 324) each using a charge pump stage pumps. A fractional accumulator stage (340) determines the number of charge pumps that operate during a phase comparison. The PLL frequency synthesizer avoids the need for compensation current trimming. Also, fractional compensation is accomplished dynamically and in a manner that is robust to environmental changes. A phase-locked loop (PLL) fractional-N type frequency synthesizer can incorporate a sample-and-hold circuit. The synthesizer can reduce circuit size by eliminating a loop filter. The synthesizer or fractional-N type PLL can use a divider and at least two phase detectors coupled to a sample-and-hold circuit. A lock detecting circuit can initially determine a reference voltage for the sample-and-hold circuit.

摘要： A voltage-controlled oscillator (600) including an active oscillator circuit (610), an inductor, and capacitive circuits is disclosed. The capacitive circuits are selectively turned on and off to control the frequency of the voltage-controlled oscillator (600). Particularly, the inductor and the capacitors in the capacitive circuits form LC circuits that provide feedback to the active oscillator circuit (610). To avoid damage to the switches in the capacitive circuits, the capacitive circuits further comprise resistors (622). The resistors can be configured in several different ways so that the voltage-controlled oscillator (600) can have a high degree of reliability, and a wide tuning range with constant phase noise performance.

摘要： A variable-gain amplifier circuit uses a pair of single-ended operational amplifiers (100, 110) to amplify complementary portions of a differential input signal (IN, INB). By using two single-ended amplifiers (100, 110) instead of a single differential amplifier, linearity is significantly improved. In addition, common mode feedback circuitry is eliminated along with harmonic distortion and other forms of noise which tend to negative affect the quality of the signal output from the circuit.

摘要： A method and apparatus that provide a frequency conversion in a radio frequency front-end are disclosed, including a frequency divider (407) that divides an input signal frequency by a predetermined value to produce an output signal frequency (417); and a frequency mixer (405, 406) that mixes the output signal frequency (417) with a carrier signal frequency to produce a converted signal frequency, which is substantially equal to a difference between the output signal frequency (417) and the carrier signal frequency. The predetermined value and the input signal frequency are selected such that the carrier signal frequency is not substantially equivalent to an integer multiple of the output signal frequency (417). The method and apparatus can be used in a wireless communication receiver including wireless communication systems and wireless LAN systems.

摘要： An apparatus for oscillating a frequency, which comprises a phase lock loop, see fig. 5, a variable frequency divider() is shown, that divides a first frequency (Fout) signal by a division ratio to generate a second frequency signal, this based on a comparison of reference frequency clock input (Fref) and feedback input to phase/frequency detector (510). A charge pump (520) and loop filter (530) are shown with a divider (550) that divides the second frequency signal (355) to allow the correct feedback frequency to be realized. The VCO (540) inherently has a resonant circuit including the capacitors to be selected and a corresponding control voltage to set the frequency of operation as well as an active circuit (320) for proper gain.

摘要： A translational-loop transmitter generates RF signals using at most one phase-locked-loop (PLL) circuit. In one embodiment, a single PLL generates two local oscillation signals. The first oscillation signal is mixed with a baseband signal to generate an intermediate frequency signal. The second oscillation signal is input into the translational loop to adjust a voltage-controlled oscillator to the desired carrier frequency. In order to perform this type of modulation, the frequencies of the local oscillation signals are set so that they are harmonically related to one another relative to the carrier frequency. Other embodiments generate only one oscillation signal. Under these conditions, the intermediate frequency signal is generated using the oscillation signal, and a frequency divider in the translational loop is used to generate a control signal for adjusting the voltage-controlled oscillator to the carrier frequency. In still other embodiments, a transmitter signal is generated without using any phase-locked-loop circuits. This is accomplished by generating an intermediate frequency signal using a crystal oscillator, and then using a frequency divider in a feedback loop to generate a control signal for adjusting the voltage-controlled oscillator to the carrier frequency. By minimizing the number of phase-locked-loop circuits in the transmitter, the size, cost, and power requirements of mobile handsets may be significantly reduced.

摘要： A communications receiver includes a baseband signal recovery circuit (4) which uses a low-IF architecture for data reception. The baseband signal recovery circuit uses a full-analog implementation for channel selection and filtering (5). Thus, the overhead placed on the design of analog-to-digital converter is greatly relaxed and most of hardware can be re-used for multi-mode applications with only a slight modification.

摘要： The present invention is directed to a linearization apparatus and method. Preferred embodiments according to the present invention can combine an auxiliary non-linear block (300) to a functional block of a system to increase linearity of an output signal (520) of the system such as a communication system. System overhead due to the non-linear auxiliary block can be small because of circuit structure, cost and low consumption. Further, the non-linear auxiliary block can be designed so that no feedback path is required. Further preferred embodiments can use a feedback path without loss of stability by using a cancellation apparatus or process based on an averaging detection of the output signal. For example, a feedback loop can detect power leakage in a sideband caused by non-linearities of the communication system.
