A 10-bit wide-band CMOS direct digital RF amplitude modulator.

A 10-bit wide-band CMOS direct digital RF amplitude modulator.

This paper describes a low-distortion wide-band CMOS direct digital RF amplitude modulator, which uses a 10-bit linear interpolation current-steering digital-to-analog converter (DAC) and a Gilbert-cell-based mixer to generate an amplitude modulated RF signal directly. The linear interpolation incre...
