By utilizing this type of TLs, a CMOS fabrication process of 0.18 um can be realized for the design of transmission line inductors and synthetic TLs, which can be applied to mid-power UWB amplifiers and dual-band VCOs. Applications of the CCS TL on two broadband circuits are provided. The first circuit presents a novel structure which fabricates a 3 ~ 12 GHz amplifier based on lossy match, broadband match and RC feedback technology. This amplifier achieves measured results of 8.7 dB gain, output P1dB 11.2 dBm with good return loss. The design of using the CCS TLs to synthesize the loosy match circuit and broadband technology are discussed. The second circuit presents a dual-band VCO (11/17 GHz). The tuning range of the VCO is 11.2 ~ 12.2 GHz and 16.855 ~ 18.355 GHz for low band mode and high band mode respectively. The phase noise is -113.68 dBc at 1MHz offset in low band mode and -114.48 dBc at 1MHz offset in high band mode. The design and switch of LC tank, in addition with the application of CCS TL on the design of LC tank are discussed. Finally, the conclusion provides strong evidence for the benefits of applying CCS TL technology to practical circuits design on broadband applications.1 Introduction 7 1.1 Motivation . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 7 1.2 Thesis Organization . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 9 2 Synthetic Quasi-TEM Transmission Lines Application 10 2.1 Conventional Microstrip Line . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 10 2.2 Complementary-Condcuting Strip Transmission Line (CCS TL) . . . . . . . 13 2.3 Scale Down Technology in CCS TL . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 15 3 CMOS UWB Mid-Power Amplifier Design 19 3.1 Lossy Match Theory . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 19 3.1.1 RC-Type Lossy Match . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 19 3.1.2 RL-Type Lossy Match . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 22 3.1.3 RLC-Type Lossy Match . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 23 3.2 Quaterwave Transmission Line Equivalent Model . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 25 3.3 UWB Amplifier Broadband Match Analysis . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 26 3.3.1 UWB Amplifier Lossy Match Circuit Analysis . . . . . . . . . . . . . 26 3.3.2 UWB Amplifier Feed Back Circuit Analysis . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 32 3.3.3 UWB Amplifier LC Broadband Match Circuit Analysis . . . . . . . . 36 3.4 Mid-Power UWB Amplifier Schematic and Layout . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 42 3.5 Mid-Power UWB Amplifier Measurement . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 47 4 11/17 GHz Dual-Band VCO Design 54 4.1 Crossed-Coupled Oscillator Theory . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 54 4.2 MOSFET Switch . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 57 4.3 Dual-band VCO Schematic and Layout . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 61 4.4 11/17 GHz Dual-band VCO Measurement . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 65 5 Conclusion 722580869 bytesapplication/pdfen-US放大器振盪器互補式金屬導線傳輸線超寬頻雙頻amplifierVCOoscillatorCCSUWBdual-band互補式金屬導線傳輸線於寬頻電路設計與應用Design and Applications of Complementary-Conducting Strip Transmission Line on Broadband Circuitsthesishttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/58673/1/ntu-96-P94942005-1.pdf
