To achieve both low power and robustness, dynamic range scaling is implemented on an elliptic ladder prototype. The dynamic range scaling is based on the special requirement for the wireless receiver. A new method to analyze the trade-off between filter noise and power consumption is presented. The filter and PLL dissipate 2.9 mW and 1.6 mW from a 3-V supply, and the die area is 1.06 mm/sup 2/. The filter achieves 61 dB stopband rejection, 0.05 dB/0.2/spl deg/ I/Q gain/phase mismatch, 100 /spl mu/Vrms input-referred noise, 20 dBm IIP3, and 58 dB SFDR.","PeriodicalId":6361,"journal":{"name":"2000 Symposium on VLSI Circuits.

A multilevel technique is the most effective approach to improving memory density, but it requires precise control of a memory cell's Vth that doesn't degrade programming performance. To enable this, we have developed a selective verify scheme for high-speed programming based on simultaneous multilevel programming. A selective verify scheme with asymmetrical cell operation and two-bank operation makes 5-MB/s programming throughput in 3-bit/cell flash memories attainable.","PeriodicalId":6361,"journal":{"name":"2000 Symposium on VLSI Circuits.
