Very low-voltage (0.8 V) CMOS receiver frontend for 5 GHz RF applications
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A fully integrated low-voltage RF receiver front end for 5 GHz radio applications, implemented in a standard 0.18 μm CMOS technology, is presented. The receiver consists of a differential low noise amplifier, an active mixer, and a quadrature voltage-controlled oscillator. The complete receiver is packaged in a standard 24-pin ceramic flat pack and consumes 56 mW from a 0.8 V supply. Measurement results show that the receiver has an overall noise figure of 7 dB, a −1 dBm input-referred IIP3, and 22 dB of image rejection. A stand-alone single-ended version of the LNA is also presented. Simple mechanisms for tuning the gain and the centre frequency of the LNA are proposed. With a supply voltage of 1 V, the LNA provides a power gain of 13.2 dB, has a noise figure of 2.5 dB, and over 10 dB of gain control and 360 MHz of frequency tuning. The LNA still operates well from a supply voltage as low as 0.7 V, providing a power gain of 7 dB.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
