Abstract

A novel VHF/UHF passive attenuator linearization circuit suitable for mobile TV applications has been designed and implemented in 65 nm CMOS technology. The proposed attenuator has a wide gain range of 48 dB that can be digitally programmed in 3 to 6 dB steps. At every gain setting, the input and output of the attenuator are matched to 50 Ω 2 to facilitate its integration into mobile TV tuners.
