Abstract

An integrated circuit design of a high speed multiplier for direct sigma—delta modulated bit-stream signals is presented. Compared with conventional structures, this multiplier reduces the circuit-loop delay of its sub-modules and works efficiently at a high speed. The multiplier's stability has also been improved with source coupled logic technology. The chip is fabricated in a TSMC 0.18-μm CMOS process. The test results demonstrate that the chip realizes the multiplication function and exhibits an excellent performance. It can work at 4 GHz and the voltage output amplitude reaches the designed maximum value with no error bit caused by logic race-and-hazard. Additionally, the analysis of the multiplier's noise performance is also presented.
