Description

The wideband low noise amplifier with single-ended transfer difference ability and filter action
Technical field
The invention belongs to communication technical field, relate to a kind of low noise amplifier, particularly relate to a kind of wideband low noise amplifier with single-ended transfer difference ability and filter action.
Background technology
At the RF of broadband receiver input front end, except the most basic low noise amplification and impedance matching requirement, toward contact, need to meet other requirements, comprise tracking filter (Tracking Filtering), single-ended transfer difference, the two highly stable rank linearities, and more and more lower power consumption etc.A kind of more common way that can meet these requirements is exactly: radio frequency (RF) signal is through after the network or low noise amplifier of single-ended transfer difference, through overdrive (Buffer) level and mutual conductance (Gm) level, be connected in filtering load and complete narrow-band tracking (tracking) filtering, through (Buffer) level of overdriving, arrive frequency mixer (Mixer) more afterwards.Wherein driving (Buffer) level and mutual conductance (Gm) level as intergrade (Interface Stage) can consume many power consumption and area, limits the whole linearity and noise simultaneously.In order to meet these requirements above-mentioned, and reduce the impact of intergrade on performance as far as possible, below the structure of conventional wideband low noise amplifier is analyzed.
Conventional wideband low noise amplifier structure, a lot of all based on single-ended input Single-end output at present.
Wherein the simplest structure comes from the single tube amplification of common grid (Common-gate) or common source (Common-Source).Wherein common source (Common-Source), although add that the structure of input resistance coupling in parallel is very simple, but still is often used.The common shortcoming of these structures is noiseproof feature and the impedance matching performance that is difficult to simultaneously reach.
Except single tube amplifier and simple feedback amplifier, in order to reach lower noise factor when realizing impedance matching, the technology that a lot of wideband low noise amplifier structures adopt noise to eliminate.For example, the structure that Brooker Rayleigh proposes in IEEEJSSC in 2004 publishes thesis " wideband low noise amplifier (Wide-Band CMOS Low-Noise Amplifer Exploiting Thermal Noise Canceling) that adopts thermal noise technology for eliminating ", has realized the elimination of Input matching pipe noise.Afterwards, similarly structure applications is in Digital Television Tuner chip, such as, Gu Puta has adopted similar structure in the paper " the Direct Conversion TV tuner of 48~860MHz (A 48to 860MHz CMOS Direct-Conversion TV Tuner) " that IEEE ISSCC in 2007 delivers.Yet the shortcoming of this structure is to be difficult to obtain good IIP2 performance.The paper that 2009 Nian Dong state English are published in IEEE JSSC " is applied to digital TV tuner; adopt the wideband low noise amplifier (A Wideband CMOS Low Noise Amplifer Employing Noise and IM2Distortion Cancellation for a Digital TV Tuner) of noise and two rank Nonlinear elimination technology ", it has adopted the method for current mirror and CMOS, not only retain the ability that noise is eliminated, more can improve to a certain extent the IIP2 performance of single-ended input Single-end output LNA.But the shortcoming of this structure is: current mirror has limited the bandwidth of circuit working, and a lot of noises of current mirror meeting introducing itself, and the quality of the two rank linearities is relevant with the coupling of PMOS and NMOS to a great extent, and this just makes the Performance Ratio of IIP2 more responsive.The structure of the wideband low noise amplifier of more than introducing, although can realize lower noise factor, all cannot meet on chip the requirement for single-ended transfer difference, and all be difficult to reach the reasonable two rank linearities.
But low noise amplifier (LNA) structure that can realize single-ended transfer difference in broadband is also few, for example, cloth clarke Mel published thesis on IEEE JSSC in 2008 and " can reach balance output simultaneously, broadband single-ended transfer difference low noise amplifier (the Wideband Balun-LNA With Simultaneous Output Balancing of noise elimination and Nonlinear elimination, Noise-Canceling and Distortion-Canceling) ", it has proposed single-ended input, difference output, and can eliminate Input matching low noise amplifier (LNA) structure of bank tube noise altogether.But the shortcoming of this structure is: the Voltage-output that be balanced, the output load resistance value of its two differential circuits needs different large.Like this, the such load filter circuit of similar LC Tank just can not directly be connected on its output.If must realize filtering, just need between LNA and filtering load, insert one-level transconductance stage (Gm) or drive (Buffer) level (being similar to above-mentioned general way), so both limit noiseproof feature, also affected linearity performance, also increased extra power consumption; For example, Lu Zhiyu published thesis on IEEE JSSC in 2010 " be applied to low noise harmonic wave and suppress radio frequency sampling receiver; work in tunable filter and the linearity low-noise amplifier (A 300-800MHz Tunable Filter and Linearized LNA Applied in a Low-Noise Harmonic-Rejection RF-Sampling Receiver) of 300~800M ", and it proposes to adopt reverse CMOS(inverting CMOS stage) the single-ended transfer difference structure that realizes of cascade.Although this structure can realize on sheet, singly turn two, because output cannot realize filtering, filter circuit has been placed on to radio frequency (RF) input, thereby has caused Input matching smaller bandwidth.In addition,, although the method for IIP3 by pre-linear (post-linearization) is guaranteed, its reasonable IIP2 in essence or the coupling by PMOS and NMOS obtains, thereby more responsive.But owing to not adopting noise cancellation technique, the noise factor of whole circuit is larger; For example, east state English publish thesis on the IEEE Transactions on Microwave Theory and Techniques of 2010 " being applied to digital TV tuner; adopt the wideband low noise amplifier (A CMOS Active Feedback Balun-LNA With High IIP2 for Wideband Digital TV Receivers) of noise and two rank Nonlinear elimination technology ", it has proposed to realize single-ended transfer difference by differential pair, and by differential-to-single-ended feedback, realizes the structure of Broadband Matching.This structure has highly stable IIP2 performance and very symmetrical difference output.But its shortcoming is the impedance operator coupling that directly impact is inputted of output, thereby cannot realize low noise amplification and filtering in one-level, and extra mutual conductance meeting limit noise and the linearity increase power consumption and area simultaneously, for example, wheat abundant published thesis on IEEE JSSC in 2011, and " area is 0.46mm2, noise factor is 4dB, the receiver front end that is applied to Whole frequency band mobile TV (A 0.46-mm24-dB NF Unified Receiver Front-End for Full-Band Mobile TV in 65-nm CMOS) that 65nm CMOS technique realizes ", the noise canceller circuit proposing based on Nuo Ta team, a part of mutual conductance is become to AC to be connected, and insert multistage difference current balancer (DCB-Differential Current Balancer) circuit so that output difference balance-dividing, realized and reasonablely singly turned two.And because output loading is identical, this structure can directly connect LC narrow-band filtering in output.The shortcoming of this structure is: the balance of output two-way realizes by multistage DCB circuit, is so limited to the voltage margin (Headroom) of circuit, is limited to again the regulating power of DCB circuit.When its regulating power is subject in limited time, input still faces the choice of noise factor and impedance matching.But the IIP2 Performance Ratio of this circuit is more responsive, is easily subject to power supply, the impact of load and DCB circuit performance; For example, Da Niluo has delivered paper " the low-power consumption low noise active double circuit (A Broadband Low-Power Low-Noise Active Balun With Second-Order Distortion Cancellation) that singly turns in broadband with two rank Nonlinear elimination abilities " on the IEEE JSSC of 2012, on the noise canceller circuit basis of Nuo tower team, proposed to adopt common-mode feedback to improve the single-ended transfer difference structure of the two rank linearities equally.Although this structure can realize good IIP2 and NF, due to the imbalance of output two-way load, unless used extra driving (Buffer) level or mutual conductance (Gm) level, not so the such load filter circuit of similar LC Tank just can not be realized.
Therefore, also do not see and can in one-level, can realize single-ended transfer difference at present, there is LC filter action, and there is low-down noise and the wideband low noise amplifier structure of stablizing the two rank linearities.
