Abstract

This work discusses the design of a 60ps delay element for UWB analog signals ranging from 0.05 up to 7.5GHz. The design is implemented using BJT transistors which have the advantage of being very compact in area compared to the passive architectures. The proposed architecture is flexible and can be cascaded to have delay upto 210ps with 3dB insertion loss. The circuit is designed using low cost 0.25μm 95GHz fmax SiGe-HBTBiCMOS process technology consuming a power of 121mW. The estimated consumed area of the circuit is 560μm x 870μm.
