摘要
Abstract
This paper reports a wideband passive mixer for direct conversion multi-standard receivers.A brief comparison between current-commutating passive mixers and active mixers is presented.The effect of source and load impedance on the linearity of a mixer is analyzed.Specially,the impact of the input impedance of the transimpedance amplifier (TIA),which acts as the load impedance of a mixer,is investigated in detail.The analysis is verified by a passive mixer implemented with 0.18μm CMOS technology.The circuit is inductorless and can operate over a broad frequency range.On wafer measurements show that,with radio frequency (RF) ranges from 700 MHz to 2.3 GHz,the mixer achieves 21 dB of conversion voltage gain with a-1 dB intermediate frequency (IF) bandwidth of 10 MHz.The measured IIP3 is 9 dBm and the measured double-sideband noise figure (NF) is 10.6 dB at 10 MHz output.The chip occupies an area of 0.19 mm2 and drains a current of 5.5 mA from a 1.8 V supply.关键词
