In today's era requirement of RF communication systems is increasing extensively, so low power and high performance circuits are demanded. CMOS is the most promising technology for system integration due to its higher packaging density. Mixer performance decides the performance of whole transceiver. To reduce the problem of congestion and noise of the protocols (Bluetooth, IEEE 802.11b etc) sharing the same ISM Band (2.4 GHz), high gain and linear performance circuits are required. In this paper we study the understanding of basic RF mixer with some techniques which can help to improve and optimize the design with high linearity and moderate gain.Keywords

The paper presents a designing a low jitter Phase Locked Loop (PLL). To reduce the jitter design is modified such that it gives minimal phase variation at the output of voltage controlled oscillator. The design uses phase frequency detector with charge pump configuration. The current source output of charge pump given to the current starved voltage controlled oscillator. The VCO is design of 100 Mhz with 50 nm technology BSIM4 model used for simulation in LTSpice. The design has advantage in lower area as well as faster acquisition time of PLL.Keywords

Energy consumption and quality of service (QoS) are the two primary concerns in the development of today’s pervasive computing systems. While most of the current research in energy-aware real-time scheduling has been focused on Hard Real-time Systems, a large number of practical applications and systems exhibit more weakly hard real-time. Weakly Hard Real-time Systems can tolerate some occasional deadline misses. This feature provides a unique opportunity to reduce system’s energy.
Our goal is to minimize the system energy (energy required by frequency dependent and independent component) rather than minimization of processor energy only. We use the term frequency dependent component to refer a processor and frequency independent for memory or peripheral devices. We aim to minimize the system energy for weakly hard real time systems modeled with constraint using a combination of Dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) and Dyanamic power down (DPD). The QoS requirements are deterministically quantified with imprecise concept or by (m, k) model, while energy minimization is done in two phases, in the first phase the feasibility and energy reduction at the task level is achieved while further reduction in the energy consumption is accomplished in the improvement (second) phase at the job level. We propose a new portioning strategy to decide a job to be mandatory or optional with speed assignment for each task is done based on the greedy speed assignment technique in phase 1. While in the second phase we adopt the preemption control technique by delaying the higher priority jobs without missing its deadline. Experiments were performed and it was found that our proposed techniques improve significantly in terms of both the energy minimization as well as QoS over the existing one and over wide range of parameter including variation of m & k.

Firstly, applications related with multiphase requirement for different purposes have been explored. With consideration of that, fundamental working principal of coupled complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) ring oscillator has been discussed with mathematical background of operation for number of different phase generation with frequency of improvement. Compare to conventional ring oscillator, how coupled ring oscillator give better frequency phase performance is explained in detail. With emphasis on different phase permutations in specific dimension, analysis of coupled ring structure in phase domain is presented. Due to sack of intuitive understanding, basic performance parameter like phase noise with power dissipation relationship is described with mechanical analogy of system.

With the continuous trend of reducing feature size, and employing continuously smaller components on integrated circuits, new challenges arises on the way of silicon CMOS circuits and devices. The emerging devices, partially due to their extremely small dimensions, show large variations in their behavior. The variation shown by these devices affects their reliability and the performance of circuits made from them. After aggressive scaling, the bulk Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) technology is facing numerous challenges which have motivated the researchers to concentrate for other promising devices. Parameter variation is below 90nm technologies will pose a major challenge for the future high speed microprocessor. Now, in this paper we have discussed various parameter variation like process, temperature, and voltage variation.
