    A 2.4-GHz low-noise sub-harmonic direct-conversion receiver (SH-DCR) is demonstrated using standard 0.18-mu m CMOS technology. Deep-n-well vertical-NPN (V-NPN) bipolar junction transistors (BJTs) are employed to solve the flicker noise problem in CMOS process. Design optimization of a power-constrained noise-impedance-matched low-noise amplifier (LNA) with the effect of lossy on-chip inductors is fully discussed in this paper. A multi-stage octet-phase polyphase filter is analyzed in detail and implemented to generate well balanced octet-phase LO signals. As a result, the demonstrated receiver achieves 51-dB voltage gain and 3-dB noise figure with flicker noise corner less than 30 kHz when RF = 2.4 GHz. The I/Q amplitude/phase mismatch is below +/-0.2 dB/+/-1 degrees, respectively, covering from 2.35 to 2.6 GHz. The dc current consumption is 5 mA at a 1.8-V supply.

    A low-power tunable-band sub-harmonic direct-conversion receiver covering the whole Unlicensed National Information Infrastructure band is demonstrated using 0.18-mu m CMOS technology. The RF band is selected by tuning varactors at the loads of the two-stage low-noise amplifier, while a wideband octet-phase generator is applied at the local oscillator (LO) port. The band tuning of both an LC tank and a transformer and the design of an optimal transformer turn ratio are fully discussed in this paper. Vertical-NPN bipolar junction transistors in a standard CMOS process are used at the mixer switching core for excellent 1/f noise performance. As a result, the receiver achieves a 48/50 voltage gain and 4.5/4.8-dB noise figure with a 1/f noise corner of 70 kHz when the RF band is tuned to 5.2/5.8 GHz, respectively. The dc current consumption of the RF front-end (including the LO buffer) is 8.5 mA at a 1.8-V supply.

    A 2.4-GHz low-power low-noise direct-conversion receiver is demonstrated using parasitic vertical-NPN bipolar junction transistors (BJTs) in a standard 0.18-mu m CMOS process. The current switching operation of a Gilbert mixer with finite transistor cutoff frequency (f(T)) is thoroughly analyzed and discussed in this paper. When the mixer operates near or higher than the transistor f(T), the loss of the polyphase filter due to the capacitive loading of the mixer is a main issue. Thus, BJT devices with smaller base resistance and an inductive peaking technique with symmetric 3-D realization are employed in this paper to reduce local oscillator power by 4.5 dB. At 2.4 GHz, the demonstrated receiver has conversion gain of 51 dB and noise figure of 3.2 dB with 70-kHz 1/f noise corner, while the current consumption is 4.5 mA at a 1.8-V supply.
