A switched-capacitor programmable gain amplifier (PGA) has improved circuit performance that avoids impracticably small capacitors, while providing low total harmonic distortion (THD) and reasonable gain linearity. The sampling capacitor (CS) in the PGA is designed with a C-2C capacitor array. Gain settings from the C-2C capacitor array arranged for selection with constant VGS switches. The gain of the resulting PGA corresponds to the ratio of the effective capacitance of the C-2C array and the effective capacitance value of the feedback capacitor (CF). The resulting performance of the PGA has reduced charge injection and clock feed-through errors, and thus reduced THD.
194 Method and apparatus for minimizing the number of power amplifiers required under multiple transmission conditions US10235215 2002-09-05 US07239268B1 2007-07-03 William J. Skudera, Jr., deceased
The number of power amplifiers required to amplify a plurality of transmission signals is reduced by using non-linear transmission lines (NTL) circuits. In general, a “combining” NTL circuit is used to combine the plurality of transmission signals to form a soliton pulse. The soliton pulse is then amplified such that each of its component transmission signals are amplified. A “dividing” NTL circuit is then used to divide the amplified soliton pulse into its component amplified transmission signals. The amplified transmission signals can therefore be transmitted over a communications channel without requiring a separate power amplifier for each.
