    ABSTRACT This forum will cover present and future transmitters in wireless infrastructure applications, like base stations for cellular mobile communication. Future digitized transmitter architectures will most likely be based upon the use of advanced RF DACs or ultra high speed DACs in combination with up conversion techniques. These digital transmitter architectures need flexible (re-configurable) power amplifiers which make use of advanced techniques like multi-way Doherty or envelope tracking. Enhanced linearization techniques need to be applied in the transmitter to cope with the stringent linearity demands, while advanced calibration techniques and other design techniques will be needed to overcome circuit block impairments.

    An accurate physical model of switched-capacitor ΔΣ analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) noise is presented. Noise artifacts for various ADC blocks are captured using simple equations. Model is verified against measured 0.25-μm high... more
    An accurate physical model of switched-capacitor ΔΣ analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) noise is presented. Noise artifacts for various ADC blocks are captured using simple equations. Model is verified against measured 0.25-μm high dynamic range ADC test chip for a wireless receiver. Design guidelines based on the proposed model are discussed.
