Abstract :
A 0.8µm BiCMOS mixer has been designed for direct-conversion quadrature modulators in 1GHz range. The mixer is a modification to the current folded mixer-scheme with two key differences for better gain-linearity performance. Measured third harmonic output intercept point P3OI=+8dBm indicates that even 2V low-power operation at 16mW is possible
