A 56-GHz LC-Tank VCO With 17% tuning range in 65-nm bulk CMOS for wireless HDMI
González Jiménez, José Luis; Badets, Franck; Martineau, Baudouin; Belot, Didier (2010-03-25)
Article
Open AccessA voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) with a central frequency of 56 GHz and a 17% tuning range is presented. The oscillation frequency is tuned both by an analog input and by a 3-bit digital control bus using the same ... -
A comparison between grounded and floating shield inductors for mmW VCOs
González Jiménez, José Luis; Aragonès Cervera, Xavier; Molina Garcia, Marc Manel; Martineau, Baudouin; Belot, Didier (2010)
Conference report
Open AccessA floating-shield inductor implemented in CMOS process is compared with a conventional patterned ground shield inductor for the implementation of a LC voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) operating at mmW frequencies. ... -
Non-invasive Monitoring of CMOS Power Amplifiers Operating at RF and mmW Frequencies using an On-chip Thermal Sensor
González Jiménez, José Luis; Martineau, Baudouin; Mateo Peña, Diego; Altet Sanahujes, Josep (IEEE Press. Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2011)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyIn this paper a non-invasive, contact-less technique for the on-chip observation of PA operation is presented. It uses a differential temperature sensor that transduces the temperature increase due to the power dissipated ... -
On the electrical properties of slotted metallic planes in CMOS processes for RF and millimeter-wave applications
González Jiménez, José Luis; Martineau, Baudouin; Belot, Didier (2012-05-17)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThis paper presents a study of the effects of slottedmetallicplanes in passive structures built using CMOSprocesses for RF and millimeter-wave (mmW) applications. The impact of holes on the reference plane resistance and ...
