A 200-Mb/s 10-mW super-regenerative receiver at 60 GHz

摘要

This paper presents a low-power and high-speed super-regenerative receiver operating at the 60-GHz using 65-nm CMOS technology. The receiver uses the simplicity and power efficiency architecture for short-range communication. The proposed receiver achieves a data rate of 200 Mb/s with current consumption of 10 mA at a supply voltage of 1 V. The corresponding energy consumption of 50 pJ per receiver bit was an excellent tradeoff between cost, performance and power consumption.
