Talk about RF layout experiences about mobile phone.

Thank you activewei My actual problem is VCO phase noise is very badly affected when PA is ON. Note that we are generating VCO frequency which is twice the required. there is a divider in modulator. I have applied sufficient isolation even then it did not improve much. The consequence of this problem is that ACP requirements are difficult to me

Please Have a Look.. Layout Questions..

1.. When drawing the layout of a MOS, is it a good idea to put M1-M2 (matel1-metal2) and M2-M3.. contacts directly on the drain/source area of the transistor, just beside the gate? Or is it better to extend the M1 outside of the MOS and put all the contacts on the extension? Depends on the application.If ur design demands the low resistance

miniaturized Wilkinson power divider

Hi Nicholas, I agree with biff44. For a lossless model the results are fair enough. Try introducing dielectric and conduction losses to your model, and then see what happens. %10 precent losses sounds a little bit high for a "small size" divider, but it depends on the specific design. for example, a low power application can suffer losses wit
