An ultra low power direct-conversion receiver is demonstrated for V-band 60GHz applications in 65nm CMOS process. The power consumption is significantly reduced by the design of low-power low noise amplifier (LNA), transconductance mixer and variable gain amplifier (VGA). A compact quadrature-hybrid...
