ABSTRACT : |
A single stage down conversion super-heterodyne receiver has been designed, simulated and analyzed using Electronic Design Automation (EDA) software. Depending on the dynamic range requirements and noise figure requirements, the gains of the LNA is adjusted so as to enable the receiver to have maximum dynamic range and minimum noise figure. The receiver was been modelled on the Electronic Design Automation simulator, using the in-built components available. All the parameters were set as per the requirements and then the model is simulated. The data obtained from the simulation is analyzed by using the data display screen where any kind of plot (rectangular, polar, smith chart or tabular list etc) can be plotted for the data available.
