Abstract:A third-order intermodulation cancelation technique using a non-linear feedback is proposed to design a low-power low-distortion mixer in a 65 nm standard CMOS technology. The IM3 cancelation is achieved by estimating distorting error at a non-linear feedback element and subtracting it from the input. The linearization technique is utilized in the input trans-conductance of the mixer. The circuit functionality is analyzed using Volterra series. The covering frequency range of the mixer is 800 MHz to 5 GHz. The… Show more
