Abstract
Current-cut circuit is an effective method to obtain low power consumption in wireless communication systems as high speed OFDM. For the operation of current-mode FFT LSI with analog signal processing essentially requires current-mode serial-to-parallel/parallel-to-serial converter with multi input and output structure. However, the Hold-mode operation of current-mode serial-to-parallel/parallel-to-serial converter has unnecessary power consumption. We propose a novel current-mode serial-to-parallel/parallel-to-serial converter with current-cut circuit and full chip simulation results agree with experimental data of low power consumption. The proposed current-mode serial-to-parallel/parallel-to-serial converter promise the wide application of the current-mode analog signal processing in the field of low power wireless communication LSI.
