Abstract
A novel method of transmitter (TX) leakage cancellation is presented to improve the dynamic range of the receiver for wideband code division multiple access applications. The large TX leakage is attenuated within the low noise amplifier (LNA) output using a feed-forward path without any LNA noise figure degradation. A prototype has been designed and laid out in 0.18 μm CMOS technology. It achieves a maximum TX rejection of 18.5 dB with only 5.2 mA current consumption from 1.8 V supply voltage. LNA P-1dBCP (1 dB gain compression point) against TX leakage improves by more than 10 dB. Post layout simulations verify these results. Proposed structure dispels the requirement of off-chip surface acoustic wave filter.
