A 2.4 GHz receiver with a current-reused inductor-less noise-canceling balun LNA in 40 nm CMOS

X Liu, J Jin, X Wang, J Zhou - Microelectronics Journal, 2021 - Elsevier
A low power receiver is designed and implemented for 2.4 GHz Industrial-Scientific-Medical
(ISM) band in a 40 nm CMOS process. To obtain good noise and linearity performance at
low cost, a current-reused low power inductor-less balun low noise amplifier (LNA) structure
is proposed without use of monolithic spiral inductors or transformers. The receiver adopts a
zero-IF architecture and current mode mixing operation which avoid need of large voltage
headroom for the radio frequency (RF) voltage swing under strong interferers. A third order …
