Abstract

An integrated wideband receiver includes first and second signal processing paths and a controller. The first signal processing path has an input, and an output for providing a first processed signal, and comprises a first tracking bandpass filter having a first integrated inductor. The second signal processing path has an input, and an output for providing a second processed signal, and comprises a second tracking bandpass filter having a second integrated inductor. The controller is for enabling one of the first and second signal processing paths corresponding to a selected channel of a radio frequency (RF) input signal to provide an output signal. The controller, the first integrated inductor, and said second integrated inductor are formed on a single integrated circuit chip.
