摘要
本文采用跨导线性化方法,设计了一种指数增益控制的CMOS低失真变增益放大器。该VGA由基于电流转向结构的VGA核、基于差分对传输特性的指数电压发生器和定增益放大器级组成。在0.25 μ m CMOS技术上对所提出的VGA电路进行了验证,测量结果表明,总增益控制范围为40 dB, 3-dB带宽为100 MHz,差分输出2 Vpp时三阶互调失真为-58.5dBc,最大增益时噪声系数为8.6 dB。
A CMOS Low-Distortion Variable Gain Amplifier with Exponential Gain Control
In this paper, a CMOS low-distortion variable gain amplifier with exponential gain control is developed by utilizing a transconductance linearization scheme. The VGA is composed of a VGA core based on current-steering structure, an exponential voltage generator based on transfer characteristics of differential pair, and a stage of fixed gain amplifier. The proposed VGA circuit was verified in 0.25 mum CMOS technology, the measurement results show a total gain control range of 40 dB, the 3-dB bandwidth is 100 MHz, and a -58.5dBc third-order inter-modulation distortion at differential output of 2 Vpp are obtained, the noise figure at maximum gain is 8.6 dB.
