Abstract
This brief presents a wideband in-phase and quadrature-phase (IQ) calibration scheme, which can be embedded into variable gain amplifiers (VGA) or active filter in receivers (RXs). And a double-zero compensated amplifier is also proposed which extends the unit gain bandwidth (UGB) to 3 GHz with the power consumption of only 0.66 mW. After calibrated, the phase error and amplitude error can be lower than 0.2° and 0.04 dB within 160 MHz, respectively. The error vector magnitude (EVM) is improved from 5.7% to 1.3% with 64 QAM and 160-MHz modulated bandwidth.
