-A 0.18μm CMOS MICS-band transceiver with a reconfigurable RF front-end is presented, reusing the same circuit core for super-regenerative wake-up receiver, receivemode LNA, and transmit power amplifier, eliminating the need for an external T/R switch. The transceiver uses an All Digital Frequency Locked-Loop (ADFLL) for LO signal generation and transmitter's modulation. The OOK wake-up receiver sensitivity is -80dBm @ 50kbps, while the BFSK receiver's sensitivity is -97dBm for a 75kbps signal and 2mW power consumption. The nominal output power of the transmitter is -5dBm.Index Terms -Medical Implantable Communication Services (MICS), implanted wireless sensor, ultra low power transceiver.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
