  • Feed-forward-back suppressed noise circuits
    Patent number: 7064608
    Abstract: A noiseless amplifier circuit has an amplifier, a first circuit that isolates amplifier generated noise and provides the desired gain, a second circuit that cancels the amplifier generated noise from the output signal from the amplifier, a closed loop feedback third circuit that modulates the input signal to the amplifier to compensate for amplifier generated noise, and first and second controls that keep phase and amplitude balanced at a combiner in the first and second circuits, respectively. An oscillator circuit and a mixer circuit incorporate the noiseless amplifier circuits.
    Type: Grant

  • Frequency and phase offset signal generator and method
    Patent number: 6278330
    Abstract: A signal generator and a method of generating a signal are disclosed that offsets phase and frequency of the output signal relative to the input signal by small increments, providing high resolution. The signal generator utilizes numerically controlled oscillators to instantly and independently offset phase and/or frequency.
