Abstract

This paper provides a design of 2-3.5GHz transmitter front-end based on 0.18µm RF CMOS process. The front-end circuits consist of IF single-differential converter (SDC), LO SDC, up-conversion mixer and an output buffer for testing. Under 3.3V power supply, the post-simulation results indicate that the current consumption is 38.3mA, IP1dB is 0dBm, the voltage gain at 2-3.5GHz is 4.7-3.1dB, and NF is lower than 14.5dB.The front-end design has been applied in the 2-3.5GHz transmitter and meets the requirements of system application.
