Abstract

See full text

An analog delay cell is provided that includes a transconductance-capacitance stage and an inductive transimpedance amplifier stage that provides an all-pass transfer function. In another embodiment, an adaptive analog delay cell including a transconductance (gm) plus capacitance (C) stage and an inductive-capacitance transimpedance amplifier (TIA) stage with digitally programmable phase-shift is provided. The adaptive analog delay cell increases the phase-shift by incorporating an LC network in the feedback path of the transimpedance stage. The disclosed analog delay cells can be used to provide delays in a tapped delay line. Also, the disclosed analog delay cells may be used to perform the multiplier and summation functions of a tapped delay line in addition to providing the delays. In another embodiment, the transimpedance amplifier stage includes an inductive-capacitive transimpedance amplifier stage.
