A low power miniaturized 1.95mm2 fully integrated transceiver with fastPLL mode for IEEE 802.15.4/bluetooth smart and proprietary 2.4GHz applications
Abstract
This paper presents an ultra-low power miniaturized single chip transceiver operating in the ISM band at 2.4GHz. Targeting low power and minimum die size, while excluding RF-options and minimizing the count of external components for low-cost, asks for appropriate architectural choices to obtain high performance. Fast PLL locking and immediate RX-TX turn-around minimize the consumption overhead at wake-up and turn-around. With a die size of only 1.95mm2in a 90nm standard digital CMOS technology, the receiver achieves a sensitivity of -94.5dBm (1Mbps, BER 10E-3) while consuming only 7.1mA and the transmitter consumes 9.2mA for 0dBm output power. The base-band is compliant with the IEEE 802.15.4 standard, the Bluetooth Smart standard (former Bluetooth low energy BLE) and can be configured for proprietary standards at 2.4GHz, with data-rates up to 3Mbps.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
