A Single-Chip Dual-Band CDMA2000 Transceiver in 0.13μm CMOS

A single-chip dual-band transceiver for CDMA2000 is presented. For PCS, the zero-IF receiver achieves an NF of 9dB and an IIP3 of 0.5dBm at 32dB gain resulting in a maximal output SNR of 23dB. The key figures of merit for the transmitter are +13.5dBm maximum output power, ACPR1=-57dBc and ACPR2=-69dBc while drawing 34mA average current in typical environment.
