Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques and apparatus employing an isolation ring having a center strip of conductive material used to isolate magnetic fields generated by common-mode and differential-mode current flow through one or more inductors disposed in the ring. The apparatus generally includes an electrical component having an inductive element and a ring of electrically conductive material encircling the inductive element, wherein the ring has a strip of electrically conductive material disposed in the ring and connecting a first point on the ring to a second point on the ring.

Abstract: Example apparatuses and methods for cancellation of transmitter self-interference leakage in a transceiver are described. An example transceiver includes a multiport transformer that may be used as a part of the impedance matching network on the receiver side of the transceiver. One primary port of the multiport transformer may form a portion of a cancellation circuit that, along with other components in a cancellation path, provide amplitude and/or phase modulation to a cancellation signal. The cancellation circuit may tunable and may include only reactive components in some examples.

Abstract: A differential amplifier having a tunable filter is disclosed. The tunable filter may attenuate some common-mode signals while not affecting amplification of differential signals. The tunable filter may include a resonant circuit to select frequencies of common-mode signals to attenuate. The resonant circuit may include a variable capacitor series-coupled to an inductor. A resonant frequency of the resonant circuit may be determined, in part, by a capacitance value of the variable capacitor.
