Abstract A fully integrated 2.4‐GHz CMOS receiver IC for the low‐power wireless personal area network (WPAN) is reported. In the proposed receiver, low power operation is achieved by using low voltage linear RF front‐end circuit based on current mirror amplifier based mixer and the interleaved analog baseband filter‐amplifier chain. The fully integrated receiver was fabricated in 0.18 μm CMOS technology and IIP3 of −29 dBm and noise figure of 9.6 dB at high gain mode were obtained at 8.4 mW power consumption from a 1.2 V supply. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
