David Wentzloff and Fred Lee present papers at ISSCC 2007
February 2007

David Wentzloff and Fred Lee presented papers at ISSCC 2007 on a low data rate UWB chipset. The papers were entitled "A 47pJ/pulse 3.1-to-5GHz All-Digital UWB Transmitter in 90nm CMOS" and "A 2.5nJ/b 0.65V 3-to-5GHz Subbanded UWB Receiver in 90nm CMOS". Ultra-low power operation was achieved through highly digital, low-Q circuits, fast turn-on and turn-off times, and a non-coherent signaling scheme.
