Patent number: 7049860Abstract: The present invention relates to a replica network for linearizing switched capacitor circuits. A bridge circuit with a MOSFET resistor disposed in a resistor branch of the bridge circuit is provided. A noninverting terminal of an operational amplifier is connected to a first node of the bridge circuit and an inverting terminal of the operational amplifier is connected to a second node of the bridge circuit. The second node is separated from the first node by another node of the bridge circuit. An output of the operational amplifier is provided to a gate terminal of the MOSFET resistor and to the gate terminal of the MOSFET switch in a switched capacitor circuit, thereby controlling the resistance of the MOSFET switch so that it is independent of the signal voltage. In this manner, the replica network of the present invention linearizes the switched capacitor circuit. In this manner, the replica network of the present invention linearizes the switched capacitor circuit.Type: GrantFiled: February 28, 2005Date of Patent: May 23, 2006Assignee: Broadcom CorporationInventor: Sandeep K.

Patent number: 7019591Abstract: A biasing scheme for a MOSFET that mitigates the MOSFET body effect. The biasing scheme can be realized replicating the voltage at the source terminal of a MOSFET and applying this replicated voltage to the body terminal. In this manner, the effect of the body transconductance, at high frequencies, becomes a function of the ratio of the well-to-substrate capacitance of the MOSFET to the sum of the well-to-substrate capacitance and the source-to-body capacitance of the transistor. At high frequencies, the biasing scheme mitigates the reduction in gain of a source follower caused by the body effect of a driven MOSFET within the source follower, improves the stability of a feedback network established by a gain boosting amplifier and the driven MOSFET by contributing a negative half plane zero to the transfer function of the feedback network, and reduces the power consumed by the gain boosting amplifier.Type: GrantFiled: May 6, 2005Date of Patent: March 28, 2006Assignee: Broadcom CorporationInventor: Sandeep K.

Patent number: 7015750Abstract: A system for receiving signals (e.g., optical signals) includes an input device, an amplification device, and a feedback device. The amplification device receives a signal from the input device and includes a transimpedance portion. The transimpedance portion includes a first section having a plurality of elements (e.g., resistors and transistors) and a second section having a plurality of elements (e.g., resistors and transistors). One or more of the elements (e.g. transistors or resistors) in the first and second sections are mismatched to introduce a systematic offset in the transimpedance stage, to make the net input referred offset of the amplification device unidirectional. The feedback device (e.g. an integrator) is coupled to an output of the amplification device and an input of the transimpedance portion to provide a unidirectional offset correction to the amplification device for reduced noise enhancement.Type: GrantFiled: March 31, 2005Date of Patent: March 21, 2006Assignee: Broadcom CorporationInventor: Sandeep K.
