The two stopbands can be tuned independently. The filter consists of a pair of revised spurlines. By embedding two varactors in the transmission line, a tunable dual-band bandstop filter is implemented. One stopband that has 41% tuning range centered at 2.57 GHz with |S21| better than 10dB, and the other stopband that has 13.3 % tuning range centered at 4.65 GHz with |S21| better than 15dB have been obtained. The absolute 3dB bandwidth of first stopband is less than 515MHz, and the second is less than 930MHz. The predicted results are compared with measured data and good agreement is reported, which verifies the proposed method. This kind of filter behaves similarly to the conventional open-circuited shunt-stub band-stop filters, but is more compact and has less radiation and dispersion, and is less susceptible to the influence of adjacent objects.","PeriodicalId":421574,"journal":{"name":"2012 International Conference on Microwave and Millimeter Wave Technology (ICMMT)","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-05-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129925924","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 folded topology allows the gm-stage and LO stage to have different currents. By setting the bias current in the PMOS switches near zero, the mixer DC offset due to device mismatch is greatly reduced. Capacitors are added parallel with the current generators to achieve the optimal IIP3 performance. Designed in SMIC 0.13-μm process, the mixer achieves a voltage gain (CG) of 5~7dB, a single-sideband noise figure (NF) of 11~13.2dB, and a third-order inter-modulation intercept point (IIP3) of 3.2~5dBm between 0.7~6GHz.
