  • Publication number: 20240361425
    Abstract: A device includes a port and a transformer. The transformer includes a first coil that has a first node and a second node and a second coil that is coupled to the output port. The device also includes a pulse generator coupled to the first node to generate two or more pulses with a first period on the first node and a delay module that is coupled between the second node of the first coil and the pulse generator. The delay module is generates a time delay to the two or more pulses of the pulse generator before the two or more pulses are delivered to the second node. The second coil provides a signal at the port.

  • Publication number: 20240340018
    Abstract: A transmitter includes a first circuit to generate multiphase pulses, and a second circuit to mix a set of in-phase (I) data and quadrature (Q) data with the multiphase pulses and to generate an output radiofrequency (RF) signal. The multiple pulses include multiple I pulses and multiple Q pulses each comprising a pulse that includes a duty cycle such that a first null appears at a third harmonic frequency in a frequency spectrum of the pulse.

  • Publication number: 20240340213
    Abstract: A transmitter includes a first digital-to-analog converter (DAC) circuit consisting of a first set of unary cells to mix a first set of digital input data with a first clock signal. A second DAC circuit includes a second set of unary cells to mix a second set of digital input data with a second clock signal. A third circuit provides signals to the first DAC circuit and the second DAC circuit to implement an assignment scheme to assign either an in-phase (I) component or a quadrature (Q) component to the first set of unary cells and the second set of unary cells. Based on the assignment scheme, the first set of digital input data include I-data and Q-data, and the second set of digital input data include I-data and Q-data.
