  • Patent number: 8362825
    Abstract: A sub-stage for a charge pump includes a dc input pin, a dc output pin, a first radio frequency (rf) input pin configured to receive a first differential signal, a second rf input pin configured to receive a second differential signal, a first transistor having first, second and third terminals, a second transistor having first, second and third terminals, a first bias voltage source, and a second bias voltage source. The third terminal of the first transistor is configured to receive the second differential signal from the second rf input pin and a first offset voltage signal from the first bias voltage source. The third terminal of the second transistor is configured to receive the second differential signal from the second rf input pin and a second offset voltage signal from the second bias voltage source.

  • Publication number: 20110316618
    Abstract: A sub-stage (212) for a charge pump (200) having a first and second phase of operation. The sub-stage (212) comprising a dc input pin (222); a dc output pin (220); a first rf input pin (202) configured to receive a first differential signal; and a second rf input pin (204) configured to receive a second differential signal. The sub-stage (212) further comprising a first transistor (224) having a first, second and third terminal, wherein a current channel is provided between the first and second terminal of the transistor (224); and a second transistor (226) having a first, second and third terminal, wherein a current channel is provided between the first and second terminal of the transistor (226). The first terminal of the first transistor (224) is connected to the dc input pin (222), the second terminal of the first transistor (224) is connected to the first terminal of the second transistor (226), and the second terminal of the second transistor (226) is connected to the dc output pin (220).
