Abstract: | 本論文將介紹製作於互補式金氧半電晶體(CMOS FET)製程之低功耗和小晶片面積的分佈式放大器,與具有大功率輸出能力和小晶片面積的功率放大器。
首先提出的是由180奈米互補式金氧半電晶體製程所設計之傳統分佈式放大器(CDA)為架構,並以單級分佈式放大器(CSSDA)為其中增益元件,再利用反饋變壓器以達到訊號耦合的效益。其中增益頻寬積(GBW product),直流功耗和晶片面積為設計此分佈式放大器的考量。在利用反饋變壓器的情形下,此分佈式放大器可以在不影響特性表現的情況下,有降低直流功耗和達到縮小晶片面積的效果。此分佈式放大器可以達到12-dB的小訊號增益和33.5 GHz的頻寬(頻寬內增益變化大於3 dB),且直流功耗僅有69 mW,而晶片總面積只有0.72平方毫米。 接著是設計於60 GHz 的堆疊式功率放大器(stacked-PA),由65奈米互補式金屬氧化物半導體製程所實現,此設計中使用了變壓器之電壓式輸出結合器。此輸出結合器於60 GHz的操作頻率下只有0.9 dB之介入損耗及小的尺寸(0.02平方毫米),以用來提供高功率結合。採用堆疊式的功率放大器以提高元件的供應電壓和輸出功率。此功率放大器於60 GHz 的操作頻率下達到了22.8 dBm的飽和功率輸出、15.9 %之最大功率附加效率,其中不包含輸出變壓器所提供的損耗,而晶片核心面積僅為0.28平方毫米。 This thesis presents a CMOS compact and low dc power distributed amplifier (DA) and a CMOS power amplifier (PA) with high output power and compact size. Firstly, the conventional distributed amplifier (CDA) with cascaded single-stage distributed amplifier (CSSDA) gain stage using the feedback transformer for signal-coupling purpose implemented in 0.18-μm CMOS is proposed. It takes considerations of gain-bandwidth (GBW) products, dc power consumption, and chip size. By using the feedback-transformer, this DA reduces dc power consumption and achieve a compact chip size while maintaining the gain and bandwidth performances. This DA achieves 12-dB gain and 33.5-GHz bandwidth, which the gain variation is over 3 dB, with total dc power of 69 mW and the compact size of 0.72 mm^2. Secondly, the 60-GHz stacked-power amplifier implemented in 65-nm CMOS is designed with transformer (TF)-based voltage-type output combiner. This output combiner with only 0.9-dB insertion loss at 60 GHz and 0.02- mm^2 compact size is designed for high output power combining. The stacked-PA topology is adopted for increasing the supply voltage to the devices and the output power of the PA. The proposed power amplifier achieves saturated output power (P_SAT) of 22.8 dBm with 15.9% 〖PAE〗_max at 60 GHz excluding the loss of the output transformer and the chip size is only 0.28 mm^2 excluding the pads. |
