Abstract
A high-frequency linear MOS mixer topology is presented for the implem entation of a 1-GHz up-conversion mixer in a standard 0.7-mu m CMOS te chnology, The high output bandwidth has been achieved by the developme nt of an nMOS-only current amplifier that converts the modulated curre nt of the nMOS mixing transistor biased in the linear region to the RF output voltage.
