    A 16-GHz double-quadrature very low IF down conversion mixer with polyphase filters is demonstrated using 0.15-nm metamorphic high electron mobility transistor (mHEMT) technology. Due to the hgih cut-off frequency of mHEMT device, the image rejection Gilbert mixer works at 16 GHz. The polyphase filters are employed to generate differential quadrature signals and eliminate the image signal at RF/LO stages and IF stage, respectively, in the double quarture configuration. When RF and LO frequencies are designed around 16 GHz and an IF frequency is 32 MHz, The double-quadrature Gilbert down-converter has 32-dB image rejection ratio, 1.7-dB conversion gain, -5-dBm IP1dB, and 5-dBm IIP3. The die size is 3.0 mm x 3.2 mm.

    A Broadband Gilbert Down-Converter with step-impedance rat-race coupler is demonstrated using 0.13 mu m standard CMOS technology. The proposed method utilizes higher effective dielectric-constant, phase-inverter and step-impedance techniques simultaneously to make the rat-race coupler more compact (similar to 64% reduction) and phase-balanced over a wide operating bandwidth. The down-converter has NF of 16 dB and LO-to-RF isolation of better than 35 dB. The mixer core consumes 2.9 mA at V(dd)=1.8 V.

    A 5.2 GHz three-level sub-harmonic downconversion Gilbert mixer using GaInP/GaAs HBT (Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor) technology is demonstrated in this paper. The LO frequency is half of the RF frequency for the three-level sub-harmonic mixer architecture; therefore, the RF frequency is 5.2004 GHz and LO frequency is 2.6 GHz. The conversion gain is 14.5 dB, IP(1dB') is -18 dBm, IIP(2) is 13 dBm and the IIP(3) is -5 dBm when the LO power equals to -8 dBm. The 2LO-to-RF leakage is about -83 dBm. The RF input return loss is better than -18 dB from DC to 6GHz.

    A 5.2 GHz SiGe BiCMOS stacked-LO-stage CMFB (Common Mode Feedback) sub-harmonic mixer is demonstrated in this letter. The stacked-LO-stage and the active loads are used to improve the 2LO-RF isolation and the conversion gain, respectively. The SiGe mixer includes five levels of transistors stacked together at the supply voltage of 3.3 V because of the low knee-voltage characteristic of the SiGe HBTs (Heterojunction Bipolar Transistors). The mixer demonstrated achieves 23 dB conversion gain and -78 dB 2LO-RF isolation.

    A triple-band (2.4, 5.2, and 5.7 GHz) CMFB downconversion micromixer with a low-voltage cascode current mirror RF input stage has been demonstrated by the 0.18-mu m CMOS technology in this letter. Micromixer has a single-ended RF input stage, the CMFB topology is adopted to improve the conversion gain, and a differential-to-single output buffer is used to convert the differential output of the mixer into a single-ended output. The fully integrated downconversion micromixer has the conversion gain of 12 dB, LO-to-IF isolation of 43 dB, LO-to-RF isolation of 48 dB, and RF-to-IF isolation of 18 dB at 2.4 GHz. The mixer has the conversion gain of 7.5 dB, LO-to-IF isolation of 54 dB, LO-to-RF isolation of 49.5 dB, and RF-to-IF isolation of 25 dB at 5.7 GHz. The total quiescent current consumption of the circuit is 7.6 mA. (c) 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

    A GaInP/GaAs HBT broadband RF front-end consisting of a low noise wideband amplifier and a micromixer is demonstrated in this paper. The major advantage of this work is the elimination of inductors and thus the chip area can be greatly saved. The bandwidth of the RF front-end is up to 7 GHz. The measured conversion gain is higher than 25 dB from 1 GHz to 7 GHz and the noise figure of the RF front-end is less than 8 dB within the bandwidth.

    A GaInP/GaAs heterojunction bipolar transistor (HBT) down-converter using the Weaver architecture is demonstrated in this paper. The Weaver system is a double-conversion image rejection heterodyne, system which requires no bandpass filters in the signal path and no quadrature networks. The Weaver down-converter has the image rejection ratios of 48 dB and 44 dB when the RF frequency is 5.2 GHz and 5.7 GHz, respectively. A new frequency quadrupler is employed in the down-converter to generate the local oscillator (LO) signals. The frequency quadrupler is designed to minimize the phase error when generating LO signals and thus the image rejection performance is improved. A diagrammatic explanation using the complex mixing technique to analyze the image rejection mechanism of the Weaver architecture is developed in this paper. From our analysis, the image rejection can be further improved by making the LO1 and LO2 signals coherent.

    A 10-GHz sub-harmonic Gilbert mixer is demonstrated in this paper using the 0.35 mu m SiGe BiCMOS technology. The time-delay when the sub-harmonic LO (Local Oscillator) stage generates subharmonic LO signals is compensated by using fully symmetrical multiplier pairs. High RF-to-IF isolation and sub-harmonic LO Gilbert cell with excellent frequency response can be achieved by the elimination of the time-delay. The SiGe BiCMOS sub-harmonic micromixer exhibits 17 dB conversion gain, -74 dB 2LO-to-RF isolation, IP1dB of -20 dBm, and IIP3 Of -10 dBm. The measured double sideband noise figure is 16 dB from 100-kHz to 100-MHz because the SiGe bipolar device has very low 1/f noise corner.

    Active PMOS loads with common mode feedback to stabilize the bias points are employed in the Gilbert mixer loads to increase the mixer gain. Good device matching and the deep trench isolation technique in the SiGe HBT technology can improve the port-to-port isolations. A 16 dB conversion gain, Ip(ldB) = -21 dBm and IIP3 = - 11 dBm using 0.35 mu m SiGe BiCMOS Gilbert downconversion micromixer is demonstrated when RF = 5.2 GHz and LO = 5.17 GHz with -66 dB LO-IF, -52 dB LO-RF, and -24 dB RF-IF isolations.

    A 5.2 GHz 1 dB conversion gain, IP(1dB) = - 19 dBm and IIP(3)= -9dBm double quadrature Gilbert downconversion mixer with polyphase filters is demonstrated by using 0.35 mu m SiGe HBT technology. The image rejection ratio is better than 47 dB when LO=5.17 GHz and IF is in the range of 15 MHz to 45 MHz. The Gilbert downconverter has four-stage RC-CR IF polyphase filters for the image rejection. Polyphase filters are also used to generate LO and RF quadrature signals around 5 GHz in the double quadrature downconverter.
