title = "Systematic design of RSSI and logarithmic amplifiers circuits",
abstract = "This paper presents a systematic design methodology for logarithmic amplifiers and receiver signal strength indicator (RSSI) circuits. A close expression for the maximum detection error using a piece wise linear approximation of the logarithmic function was derived. The design methodology has been proposed that optimizes the power consumption and 3dB bandwidth of a single stage CMOS limiting amplifier according to the common mode voltages in order to meet the voltage gain and detection error requirements. The results for the RSSI circuit indicate 70dB dynamic range, 3dB bandwidth of 500MHz and maximum detection error of 0.6dB in the temperature range between -40°C and +70°C. The overall power consumption equals to 10.3mW in 180nm CMOS process technology.",
