A High-Power 3P3T Cross Antenna Switch with Low Harmonic Distortion and Enhanced Isolation Using T-Type Pull-Down Path for Cellular Mobile Devices.

This paper presents a radio frequency (RF) triple pole triple throw 3P3T cross antenna switch for cellular mobile devices. The negative biasing scheme was applied to improve the power-handling capability and linearity of the switch by increasing the maximum tolerable voltage drop across the drain and source and reverse biasing the parasitic junction diodes. To avoid signal reflection through the antenna in off-state, all the antenna ports were equipped with 50-ohm termination to provide the pull-down path.

A Highly Efficient RF-DC Converter for Energy Harvesting Applications Using a Threshold Voltage Cancellation Scheme.

In this paper, a self-threshold voltage () compensated Radio Frequency to Direct Current (RF-DC) converter operating at 900 MHz and 2.4 GHz is proposed for RF energy harvesting applications. The threshold voltage of the rectifying devices is compensated by the bias voltage generated by the auxiliary transistors and output DC voltage.

A Configurable and Fully Synthesizable RTL-Based Convolutional Neural Network for Biosensor Applications.

This paper presents a register-transistor level (RTL) based convolutional neural network (CNN) for biosensor applications. Biosensor-based diseases detection by DNA identification using biosensors is currently needed. We proposed a synthesizable RTL-based CNN architecture for this purpose.

T/R RF Switch with 150 ns Switching Time and over 100 dBc IMD for Wideband Mobile Applications in Thick Oxide SOI Process.

This paper presents a fast-switching Transmit/Receive (T/R) Single-Pole-Double-Throw (SPDT) Radio Frequency (RF) switch. Thorough analyses have been conducted to choose the optimum number of stacks, transistor sizes, gate and body voltages, to satisfy the required specifications. This switch applies six stacks of series and shunt transistors as big as 3.

A Low-Band Multi-Gain LNA Design for Diversity Receive Module with 1.2 dB NF.

This paper presents and discusses a Low-Band (LB) Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) design for a diversity receive module where the application is for multi-mode cellular handsets. The LB LNA covers the frequency range between 617 MHz to 960 MHz in 5 different frequency bands and a 5 Pole Single Throw (5PST) switch selects the different frequency bands where two of them are for the main and three for the auxiliary bands. The presented structure covers the gain modes from -12 to 18 dB with 6 dB gain steps where each gain mode has a different current consumption.
