Low Power Analog Circuits for an All CMOS Integrated

CDMA Receiver

Lapoe E. Lynn, M.S.1995 (advisor: Robert Brodersen)

The work presented here represents part of the effort to design and build the infopad radio receiver as a low-power, monolithic, single-CMOS-chip. In particular, this work focuses on the design and implementation of high speed, discrete-time variable gain circuits, as well as an extremely fast, low power 4 bit analog to digital converter for use in the integrated receiver chip.
