摘要
A low-noise, linearized double-balanced active mixer circuit is described, including a first input for a local oscillator (LO), a second input for an intermediate frequency (IF) signal, and an output for a resulting product radio frequency (RF) signal. The mixer circuit also includes a feedback transformer circuit for the purpose of improving the intermodulation (IM) performance. The lossless nature of the feedback topology gives the active mixer a lower noise figure (NF) characteristic than is realizable with conventional methods. The number of active devices is minimized in order to ensure that the mixer attains the lowest possible NF.
