Patent number: 12237816Abstract: An on-chip transformer circuit is disclosed. The on-chip transformer circuit comprises a primary winding circuit comprising at least one turn of a primary conductive winding arranged as a first N-sided polygon in a first dielectric layer of a substrate; and a secondary winding circuit comprising at least one turn of a secondary conductive winding arranged as a second N-sided polygon in a second, different, dielectric layer of the substrate. In some embodiments, the primary winding circuit and the secondary winding circuit are arranged to overlap one another at predetermined locations along the primary conductive winding and the secondary conductive winding, wherein the predetermined locations comprise a number of locations less than all locations along the primary conductive winding and the secondary conductive winding.Type: GrantFiled: August 18, 2021Date of Patent: February 25, 2025Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Kaushik Dasgupta, Chuanzhao Yu, Chintan Thakkar, Saeid Daneshgar, Hyun Yoon, Xi Li, Anandaroop Chakrabarti, Stefan Shopov

Publication number: 20250038708Abstract: An electronic device may include wireless circuitry with a mixer. The mixer may include a transconductor with first and second input transistors, a switching quad with first and second pairs of mixer transistors, and a transformer coupled between the transconductor and the switching quad. The transformer may have a primary winding and a secondary winding. The transformer may have a conductive path that couples a center tap contact of the primary winding to a center tap contact of the secondary winding. The conductive path may configure the transformer to share a DC bias current between the transconductor and the switching quad. This may eliminate the need to bias the transconductor and the switching quad using different power supply voltages, thereby minimizing power consumption without sacrificing performance.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 28, 2023Publication date: January 30, 2025Inventor: Anandaroop Chakrabarti

Publication number: 20240421769Abstract: Mixer circuitry can include a first pair of transistors coupled to a first tail node and configured to receive a local oscillator signal, a second pair of transistors coupled to a second tail node and configured to receive the local oscillator signal, a first digital-to-analog converter, a second DAC coupled between the first DAC and of the first pair of transistors, and a third DAC coupled between the first DAC and the second pair of transistors. During a first phase, control circuitry can sweep the first DAC to trim a first and/or other odd order local oscillator feedthrough. During a second phase, the control circuitry can sweep the second DAC to trim a second and/or other even order local oscillator feedthrough. During a third phase, the control circuitry can sweep the second and third DACs to reject signals associated with a second harmonic conversion gain of the mixer circuitry.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 16, 2023Publication date: December 19, 2024Inventors: Omar E.
