Data Transmission at Millimeter Waves Exploiting the 60 GHz Band on Silicon [Hardcover]

This book describes the design of a receiver front-end circuit for operation in the 60GHz range in 90nm CMOS. Physical layout of the test circuit and post-layout simulations for the implementation of a test chip including the QVCO and the first stage divider are also presented. The content of this book is particularly of interest to those working on mm-wave frequency generation and?signal reception.Introduction.- Background.- Design and Simulation Results.- Top-Level Design.- Layout and Post-Layout Simulations.- Perspectives.- Transformer-Coupled Buffer.This book describes the design of a receiver front-end circuit for operation in the 60GHz range in 90nm CMOS.
