Frequency Synthesizer design
Client : NXP, Nuremberg Germany
Product: Aero 4223
This is the frequency synthesizer for the quad band transceiver and designed with TSMC 130nm cmos process technology. The frequency range is 6.5 to 8.5 GHZ. The tank of the vco is combination of fixed capacitor, switched capacitor, varactor and inductors. The design starts with system level analysis and ends with tape out.
Associated with full chip simulation and layout

RFCMOS mixer
Client : NXP, Nuremberg Germany
This is the mixer for the quad band transceiver and designed with TSMC 65nm cmos process technology. This mixer is in the receiver section of the transceiver chip.
Mixer Design
Client : Athena Semiconductor (acquired by broadcom), Athens, Greece
Product: ATS 5001
This is mixer in receiver path of quad band receiver. The cmos mixer is double balanced passive mixer initially designed in 0.13 um technology. The design started with analysis of different mixer architectures and after comparison passive mixer had chosen for low power application.

VARIABLE GAIN AMPLIFIER
Client : Athena Semiconductor (acquired by broadcom), Athens, Greece
Product: ATS 2001
This is in base band section of GPRS chip and designed for low noise and low power. This is a two stage amplifier, the first one is fixed low gain and low noise, the second one is an opamp used for changing gain. The frequency is 200Hz to 200 KHz with gain varies from -4 to 26 dB (step size 6dB). The integrated noise is 4nV/sqHz when gain is maximum. The VGA is designed as an independent module and finally integrated in GPRS chip. The VGA design is completed using UMC 0.18um 1.8V process.
1.Mentoring other designers on their design work and reviewing the designs.
2.Involved in characterization of the chips after fabrication of gprs and wlan chip, with test team.

UWB Transmitter design
Client : Intel Bangalore, Bangalore, India
Product: Test Chip (cayman)
The design and development of UWB transmitter is completed. This is transmitter section of UWB transceiver test chip. The power consumption is 50mW only with chip area 200000um2. The transmitted signal varies from 160mV to 800mV with 50ohm load. The frequency range is 3 to 5 GHz with 500 MHz band. It means there are 4 transmitters in this chip. The transmitted signal is hanning shaped with pulse shaper for increasing the bandwidth and more side lobe rejection. The desired requirement is the 10dB bandwidth should not be less than 500MHz and the side lobe should be better than 20 dB as decided by FCC. The result is 10dB bandwidth is 600MHz and side lobe is below 28dB. The pulse shaper is a passive multiplier which multiplies the modulated signal and hanning shaped waveform (generated by a DAC, 20nS period and 5ns pulse width)
Contribution: The work involves analysis of different transmitter architecture and selection of the best architecture in terms of chip area and power consumption. The transmitter was designed from system level to the layout independently with help of one more engineer for layout.
