Abstract :
Four different MMIC distributed mixers are described and compared. The first is a mixer using a cascode of FETs, the second is a matrix distributed mixer, the third is a balanced mixer using common-source and common-gate FET pairs, and the fourth is a double-balanced mixer using an active RF/LO combiner and an active balun
