Low group delay imbalance is crucial for wireless positioning technologies such as ranging biosensors. The VGA is designed to track the Friss loss and the gain variation is achieved using bias current steering. Two cascaded linear-in-magnitude stages provide 52 dB of gain control. The measured maximum group delay variation is 50 ps over 64 states. The input P1dB gain compression point ranges between -26 dBm and -15 dBm. The saturated output power is -5 dBm for 64 gain states. The VGA is implemented in a 90nm CMOS process and the chip size is 0.035mm2.

Partially-depleted SOI (PD-SOI) processes must address losses in the semiconducting Silicon layer below the spiral inductor turns, even when high-resistivity substrates are employed. These losses are illustrated with a simplified lumped-element model and an array of inductors with different materials below is measured to confirm the theory.

To improve the out-of-band noise performance of the ETPA, Digital Pre-Distortion (DPD) on the envelope path is proposed. It is shown that the out-of-band noise is reduced by 10 dB at 100 MHz offset if a highly linear envelope amplifier is used.","PeriodicalId":339730,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE 12th Topical Meeting on Silicon Monolithic Integrated Circuits in RF Systems","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124970185","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The nanochannel is self-aligned with a nanopore created in the lipid bilayer membrane of liposomes by nanosecond electric pulses.
