Internally matched active single-to-differential RF converter

摘要

A single-to-differential converter and a method of fabricating the single-to-differential converter on an integrated circuit are described. The single-to-differential converter provides a pair of differential outputs based on a single-ended input and includes an input node to receive the single-ended input, and a first transistor connected to a power supply pin. A second transistor is connected to the power supply pin. The first transistor and the second transistor are biased under a same amount of direct current (DC) and the pair of differential outputs are generated at respective collectors of the first transistor and the second transistor.
