Circuit Design for RF Transceivers covers key building  blocks which are needed to make an integrated transceiver for wireless  and cellular applications, that is low-noise amplifiers, mixers,  voltage controlled oscillators, RF power amplifiers and phase-locked  loop systems. Starting from detailed RF concepts and specifications,  the authors discuss the circuits in detail and provide solutions to  many design problems. The circuits are implemented in a wide range of  modern technology processes. Production requirements are taken into  account, and measurement results are presented and discussed. Several  of the presented circuits are used in IC products. The text also  includes several RF technologies (for example double-poly,  Silicon-on-Anything, SiGe-bipolar, RF-CMOS, etc.) and microwave design  techniques, such as transmission line concepts. In addition, the  problem of connecting the RF signals on-chip to the PCB and to the  antenna will be discussed, including the influence of the package, ESD  and bond pads.   The contents of Circuit Design for RF Transceivers are based on  research activities carried out at Philips Research. Many internal and  external publications contributed to make the presented material  state-of-the-art. The book is written for people who have a basic  knowledge of analogue IC design.
