Abstract

A non-linear effect of a rectifier element is enhanced, an input amplitude is increased by further taking advantage of a resonance circuit, and a rectification efficiency of a rectifier circuit for detection is improved, so that the gain of an amplifier circuit at a latter stage can be set low. RF input terminalsare applied with signals at phases opposite to each other. A signal at terminalis applied to a gate of transistor Mthrough capacitor C, and a signal at terminalis applied to node Nconnected with a source of transistor Mand a gate and a drain of transistor Mthrough capacitor Cdesignate terminals applied with DC biases, and L, Cand L, Care series resonance circuits. Half-wave double voltage rectifier circuits comprised of M, M, C-C, Rare connected in cascade at a plurality of stages.
