Abstract
An example apparatus as discussed herein includes a first communication circuit and a second communication circuit. A communication link couples the first communication circuit and the second communication circuit. The communication link conveys signals between the first communication circuit and the second communication circuit. The first communication circuit includes a first active inductor set to a first inductance; the first inductance controls a resonant frequency (carrier frequency) of communicating signals from the first communication circuit. The second communication circuit includes a second active inductor set to a second inductance. The second inductance controls a frequency response (such as band-pass resonant frequency) of a band-pass filter in the second communication circuit. The setting of the first inductance and the second inductance aligns the resonant frequency of the transmitted signals with respect to a peak or center frequency passed by the band-pass filter.
