  • Abstract
    The design and performance of a Gilbert cell mixer, using GaAs PHEMT technology is presented. It was designed to operate as a down converter, with an RF frequency of 1.9 GHz, a LO of 2.0 GHz and IF of 100 MHz. A voltage gain of over 11.8 dB and an input reflection coefficient of smaller than -14 dB, without a matching network, were obtained.
