Abstract:The paper presents a design of a low power wide output bandwidth FMCW frequency synthesizer for radar applications. The proposed FMCW frequency synthesizer adopts digital phase locked loop approach and has been implemented in 65 nm CMOS technology. A phase domain model is proposed for analyzing the digital phase locked loop architecture. The FMCW synthesizer is able to generate triangularly modulated continuous wave of 3GHz output bandwidth in X band with linearity error less than 1.4×10 -4 . It consumes only … Show more
“…To reduce power consumption of synchronous counters, splitting counter architecture is proposed in [26]. As shown in Two current sources are placed at the bottom of the conventional CML divider in order to control its power consumption, and can be removed for low voltage application [44].…”
