This article reports a multiband frequency-division duplex (FDD) SAW-less transmitter (TX) for 5G new radio (5G-NR). It features a bandwidth-extended $N$ -path filter-modulator (BW-Ext FIL-MOD) to enable high- $Q$ bandpass filtering at a flexible RF and the synthesis of a complex-pole pair via merging positive- and negative-feedback networks (PFN/NFN) enhances its bandpass characteristic, surmounting the tradeoff between the passband flatness and out-of-band (OB) rejection, a switched-baseband (BB) input network to avoid the mutual loading effect between the BW-Ext FIL-MOD and itself, and a transimpedance amplifier (TIA)-based power-amplifier driver (PAD) to absorb both the bias and signal currents of the BW-Ext FIL-MOD for better linearity and power efficiency. Fabricated in 28-nm CMOS, the proposed TX manifests a 20-MHz passband BW and a consistently low OB noise (≤−157.5 dBc/Hz) for different 5G-NR bands between 1.4 and 2.7 GHz. The TX achieves sufficient output power (3 dBm), high TX efficiency (2.8%–3.6%), and high linearity (ACLR1 < 44 dBc and EVM < 2%). The active area is 0.31 mm2.

用于 5G-NR 的多频段 FDD SAW 发射器,具有带宽扩展 N 路径滤波器调制器、开关 BB 输入和基于宽带 TIA 的 PA 驱动器

本文报告了一种用于 5G 新无线电 (5G-NR) 的多频段频分双工 (FDD) SAW-less 发射机 (TX)。它具有带宽扩展 $N$ - 路径滤波器调制器 (BW-Ext FIL-MOD) 以启用高 $Q$ 在灵活的 RF 处进行带通滤波以及通过合并正反馈和负反馈网络 (PFN/NFN) 合成复极对增强了其带通特性,克服了通带平坦度和带外 (OB) 之间的权衡抑制、切换基带 (BB) 输入网络以避免 BW-Ext FIL-MOD 与其自身之间的相互负载效应,以及基于跨阻抗放大器 (TIA) 的功率放大器驱动器 (PAD) 来吸收偏置和BW-Ext FIL-MOD 的信号电流以获得更好的线性度和功率效率。拟议的 TX 采用 28-nm CMOS 制造,对于 1.4 至 2.7 GHz 之间的不同 5G-NR 频段,显示出 20-MHz 通带带宽和始终如一的低 OB 噪声 (≤-157.5 dBc/Hz)。TX 实现了足够的输出功率 (3 dBm)、高 TX 效率 (2.8%–3.6%) 和高线性度 (ACLR1 < 44 dBc 和 EVM < 2%)。有效面积为 0.31 mm 2
