Abstract
Non-idealities of input circuitry of a receiver signal chain can significantly degrade the overall performance of the receiver signal chain. To meet high performance requirements, the input circuitry is typically implemented with power hungry circuitry in a different semiconductor technology from the analog-to-digital converter that the input circuitry is driving. With suitable optimization techniques, performance requirements on the input circuitry can be reduced while meeting target performance of the receiver signal chain. Specifically, optimization techniques can compensate for input frequency-dependent properties and/or amplitude-dependent properties of the input circuitry. In some cases, reducing performance requirements on the input circuitry means that the input circuitry can be implemented in the same semiconductor technology as the analog-to-digital converter.
