Design of the 40GHz UWB Transmitter for Wireless Intra/inter Chip Communication

Abstract

In this paper, a Gaussian Pulse Generator for use in CMOS UWB transmitters and use in the wireless inter or intra chip communication. The proposed architecture is composed of a simple and robust design of a Gaussian Monocycle impulse generator at the transmitter, a wideband short-range on-chip transformer for data transmission. The circuit was implemented and simulated in ADS2009 using 0.25μm CMOS technology with a supply voltage of 3.3V. Ultra-short GMP signals of 25ps duration and 40GHz center frequency.
