20090088122 | APPARATUS AND METHODS FOR DOWNCONVERTING RADIO FREQUENCY SIGNALS - A noise isolation passive mixing apparatus is designed to mitigate noise contribution from intermediate frequency (IF) filters and amplifiers in a radio frequency translation stage. Common-gate configuration devices are inserted between passive mixer output and input of a transimpedance amplifier. In this way, circulation of the input-referred noise of the transimpedance amplifier is decreased, because of the relatively high output impedance of the common-gate devices, and the noise figure of the mixing apparatus can be improved. Since the radio frequency signal still sees low impedance, a radio frequency transconductance (RF gm) stage can be removed from the mixing apparatus, reducing current consumption. A double-balanced mixing apparatus with this general architecture may be implemented in a 0.18 micrometer CMOS technology and used in a low-IF global positioning system operating at 1.575 GHz, in an access terminal of a cellular communication system, and in other systems. | 04-02-2009 |

In one example, the PLL includes a novel programmable clock dithering circuit. The programmable clock dithering circuit is controllable via a serial bus to dither the phase of the clock signal in a selected one of several ways. If the clock signal is dithered in a first way (pseudo-random phase dithering), then the power of digital noise generated by the delta-sigma modulator is spread over a frequency band, thereby reducing the degree to which the noise interferes with other circuitry. If the clock signal is dithered in a second way (rotational phase dithering), then the power of digital noise is frequency shifted such that the degree to which the noise interferes with the other circuitry is reduced. The programmable clock dithering circuit can be controlled in other ways. For example, dithering can be programmably disabled. | 08-27-2009 |
