摘要
A precise positive-peak detector with adaptive micro-current compensator is proposed to trace the tank amplitude V-T of wideband VCOs. The compensator includes three micro-current I-micro branches controlled by automatic frequency calibration (AFC). A decoding circuit is connected between the AFC and the compensator. If oscillation frequency of VCO increases, by use of the decoding circuit, the branch with smaller I-micro would be adaptively chosen for precisely tracing the V-T. In TSMC 0.18 mu m CMOS technology, when the proposed positive-peak detector is used for a VCO with output frequency from 1.52GHz to 3.2GHz, the maximum detection error is 80mV under different corners and temperature from -40 degrees C to 80 degrees C.
