Abstract:
1. An apparatus, comprising: a first transistor having a source, a drain, and a gate; a second transistor having a source, a drain, and a gate; and a transformer having a primary and a secondary, wherein the source of the first transistor is coupled to a first terminal of the primary and to an input terminal of the apparatus, wherein the second terminal of the primary is coupled to a ground, wherein the gate of the first transistor is coupled to a first terminal of the secondary, wherein the second terminal of the secondary is coupled to a bias voltage, wherein the drain of the first transistor is coupled to the source of the second transistor, wherein the gate of the second transistor is coupled to V wherein the drain of the second transistor is coupled to a first terminal of an inductor and to a first terminal of a first capacitor, wherein the second terminal of the inductor is coupled to V wherein the second terminal of the second capacitor is coupled to the ground of the apparatus.
