21.4 A 0.75-to-1GHz Passive Wideband Noise-Cancelling 171µW Wake-Up RX and 440µW Primary RX FE with -86dBm/10kb/s Sensitivity, 35dB SIR and 3.8dB RX NF
IoT transceiver deployments are envisioned to have low power, low data-rate ($\sim$kb/s) wake-up receive (WuRX) and Mb/s primary receive (RX) modes for long battery lifetimes [1]. WuRX architectures based on energy-detection (ED) achieve ultra-low power (ULP) C0nsumpti0n but have poor sensitivities ($\sim-$60 to -40dBm) for 26dB Signal-to-Interference Ratio (SIR) at 2MHz offset for4Mb/s OPSK interferer) and high-linearity in the primary RX (0.75dBm IP1dB) and (iii)high-sensitivity in both wake-up (-86dBm) and primary RX (3.8dB NF) modes through noise cancelling, while consuming 171uW in wake-up RX mode (including RF L0) and 440uWin primary RX mode.
