Abstract
The paper presents a non-inductive broadband energy-efficient active balun based on a differential pair, intended for use in the input block of a frequency divider for 22nm technology. The developed device can operate in the frequency range from 2 GHz to 60 GHz with a supply voltage of 0.8 V and consume less than 3 mA. The special feature of the developed active balun is that it does not have inductive components, which reduces its size and signal loss. Amplitude of the output signal in working frequency range is from 450 mV to 200 mV. Signal gain in the range from 1-60 GHz varies from -10 dB up to 4 dB. The size of the circuit on the chip is 48x34 um. The device allows you to receive a stable signal at high data transfer rates and provides energy savings due to low current consumption.
