Envelope modulators with low cost, high efficiency and wide bandwidth are critical enablers for the widespread application of ET. This presentation reviews the development of various Si ICs for ET applications in basestation PAs and in handset PAs. Requirements of voltage swing, bandwidth, and accuracy are first described. BCD technology-based Si ICs for envelope modulators achieving voltages as high as 50V are presented, for operation in basestations with LDMOS and GaN RF power transistors. CMOS-based Si envelope modulator ICs for operation in wireless handsets are also discussed. ET amplifiers that achieve overall efficiency as high as 45% in 20MHz LTE handset applications are presented.","PeriodicalId":339730,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE 12th Topical Meeting on Silicon Monolithic Integrated Circuits in RF Systems","volume":"71 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":"115612779","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}

A co-design strategy is taken into consideration to reduce the size of the system and matching circuit losses. A total size of 1mm2 die has been achieved for both PA and Antenna excitation element. The antenna element as a whole is then taken from this SoC solution into a SiP configuration which can integrate the DR and silicon based elements, achieving a high gain (5dBi) and a bandwidth of 5GHz in the specified band.","PeriodicalId":339730,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE 12th Topical Meeting on Silicon Monolithic Integrated Circuits in RF Systems","volume":"21 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":"124751069","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 highly linear characteristic of implemented active inductors drive it us to 0dBm operation while providing at least 24dB attenuation at ± 400MHz from F0.
