A CMOS Quality Factor Enhanced Parallel Resonant LC-Tank with Independent Q and Frequency Tuning for RF Integrated Filters

—A new quality factor enhanced resonator core is presented and used to design a bandpass filter at 2.4GHz. The new Q-enhanced LC-tank has independent Q tuning capability, which substantially simplifies the automatic Q-tuning problem. In simulation, the unloaded Q-enhanced core consumes 7.05mA
