A 10 GS/s Distributed Waveform Generator for Sub-Nanosecond Pulse Generation and Modulation in Standard Digital CMOS
نویسندگان
چکیده
A distributed waveform generator is presented for sub-nanosecond pulse generation in UWB impulse radios. It timeinterleaves multiple digital pulse generators, and uses an on-chip transmission line for wideband pulse combining. Compared to other UWB pulse generation and shaping solutions, it is low power and fully reconfigurable. A 10-tap, 10GS/s prototype was implemented in standard digital CMOS. It consumes 50mW at 1GHz pulse repetition rate. On-off keying modulation is demonstrated using 16Mb/s PRBS data.
