Abstract

In this paper, a non-coherent UWB front-end receiver chip is proposed to operate under a 1.8V supply voltage in a standard 0.18um RF CMOS technology, at the licensed 3~5GHz band, under the suppose of UWB-NFC transmission channel model without multi-path. A non-coherent receiving solution is adopted to realize a low-complexity and high-speed physical implementation for future high data rate NFC applications. The final chip includes input matching of wide-band range, small noise figure (NF) and excellent PSRR performance by introducing a parallel negative feedback loop based on a narrowband cascode LNA topology. It is suitable for future potential applications.
