Abstract :
A balanced oscillator has been used to provide the balanced LO signals for a double-balanced resistive mixer, in an integrated monolithic circuit. This first reported balanced oscillator/resistive mixer chip operates at 25.5 GHz with low levels of LO leakage and spurious intermodulation products.
