Abstract:
An electronic device includes a transimpedance amplifier stage having an amplifier end stage of the class AB type and a preamplifier stage coupled between an output of a frequency transposition stage and an input of the amplifier end stage. A self-biased common-mode control stage is configured to bias the preamplifier stage. The preamplifier stage is formed by a differential amplifier with an active load that is biased in response to the self-biased common-mode control stage.
Abstract:
A communication apparatus includes an antenna and a receive chain. The receive chain includes a switching transistor, and amplification transistor and a discharge transistor. The amplification transistor has a control terminal coupled to a current path terminal of the switching transistor. The discharge transistor has a current path coupled between the control terminal of the amplification transistor and a ground terminal. The discharge circuit is configured to discharge an intrinsic capacitance of the switching circuit when the switching transistor is in an off state.

Abstract:
A communications device includes a transmission chain coupled to an antenna a receiver chain coupled to the antenna. The receiver chain includes an amplifier device having an input coupled to the antenna. A controlled switching circuit is included in the amplifier device and is operable to selectively disconnect conduction terminals of an amplifying transistor from power supply terminals when the transmission chain is operating to pass a transmit signal to the antenna.
