A 0.23 mW, On-Chip, self-calibrating RF amplitude detector in 65 nm CMOS

We present an RF amplitude detector with a conversion gain of -3 V/V for RF amplitude range 0 to 0.6 Vp in 65nm CMOS. On-chip self-calibration structure that automatically corrects the variations within the RF detector itself is proposed. Silicon measurement results show the self-calibration structu...

Description
Summary:We present an RF amplitude detector with a conversion gain of -3 V/V for RF amplitude range 0 to 0.6 Vp in 65nm CMOS. On-chip self-calibration structure that automatically corrects the variations within the RF detector itself is proposed. Silicon measurement results show the self-calibration structure improves the detection error of the non-calibrated RF amplitude detector to less than 10% at only 0.23mW power consumption.
