  • Abstract
    This paper presents a low IF mixer featuring MOS devices in the RF and the active load stages for DCS applications which have been optimized with respect to the supply voltage (2.2 V), current consumption (<10 mA), gain (10 dB), linearity (IIP3=8.5 dBm) and noise (DSB Nf=13 dB @100 kHz)
