Blind source separation of baseband RF communication signals using mixed-signal matrix multiplication circuit

An 8 x 8 mixed-signal matrix multiplier architecture based on 64 hybrid capacitor-resistor multiplying digital to analogue converters implemented in a 65 nm CMOS technology was developed for the application of blind source separation of baseband RF signals. The integrated circuit has 13-bit resolution for each matrix weight and achieves a measured dynamic range of > 62 dB with a bandwidth of > 15 MHz and typical power dissipation of < 30 mW per matrix row. Separation of single-tone signal is measured to be better than 57 dBc.
