Summary :

A 3 to 5-GHz Si-bipolar quadrature modulator and demodulator are described. Both feature a wideband frequency-doubling 90-degree phase shifter that has a mechanism for self-correction of phase errors caused by an original 90-degree phase-shift network at the half frequency of the carrier. Therefore, the phase shifter produces accurate quadrature carrier signals with doubled frequency. The quadrature modulator and demodulator in 30-GHz Si bipolar technology dissipate 80 mA at a 3-V supply. Image rejection of the modulator is more than 40 dB between 3.2 to 5.2 GHz. The phase and amplitude errors of the demodulator are less than 1.5 degrees and less than 0.15 dB, respectively, between 3.5 to 5.2 GHz. Therefore, both are suitable for either direct conversion or image-rejection transceivers for 5-GHz applications.
