Low Voltage Low Power Up-Conversion Mixer for Wireless Sensor Networks Node Application

Abstract:

A low voltage, low power up-conversion mixer is presented here for 2.4GHz wireless sensor networks (WSN). It was based on a double-balanced Gilbert cell type. The current-reuse technique was used to reduce the power consumption and negative-resistance compensation technique was used to improve the conversion gain. The mixer was designed in 0.18μm RF CMOS technology, and was simulated with Cadence SpectreRF. The simulation results indicate that the conversion gain is 6.37dB, the noise figure is 15.36dB and the input 1dB compression point is-10.3dBm, while consuming 1mA current for operating voltage at 1V.
