On the design of low-voltage, low-power CMOS analog multipliers for RF applications
Novel low-voltage, low-power techniques in the design of portable wireless communication systems are required. Two system examples of low-power analog multipliers operating from a 1.2 V supply are presented. These proposed structures achieve the required multiplication function by using current processing. The circuits were fabricated using standard double-poly CMOS processes for a 900 MHz application. Measurement results of the prototypes are comparable to other higher voltage designs.
