Phase Controlled 2.6-3.5 GHz Fractional-N PLL IC
conference paper
This paper describes a fractional-N PLL IC with absolute phase control utilizing an on-chip loop-filter. The frequency range is 2.6 to 3.5 GHz, which covers one of the bands for future low-band 5G telecommunication systems. For phased-array operation a compact form-factor is needed as the space available for the complete front-end is limited by the wave-length. The on-chip loop-filter allows to obtain the compact form factor required. The absolute phase-control allows for phased-array operation. The chip has been implemented in a mathbf{0.25}mumathbf{m} BiCMOS process. © 2018 European Microwave Association.
