In fact,as the Q-mixer has a larger parasitic ca- clude that pacitance at the drain of a transconductor transistor CGo=√ECGa (9) than the G-mixer,the nonlinearity caused by the Thus,in commutating mode,the Q-mixer has a switching pair is somewhat larger.This is because 3dB improvement in CG over the G-mixer.Figure 4 when the LO amplitude is high,higher current is in- plots the simulated CG of these two topologies versus jected by the parasitic capacitances,which attenuates LO amplitude.In non-commutating mode,the two to- the high-frequency phenomena and alters the periodic pologies have similar CG,but when the LO amplitude operating point of the devicests].However,because is high and the mixers are operating in the commuta- this switching pair is a minor nonlinearity contributor ting mode,the CG of the Q-mixer is approximately in commutating mixers,this linearity loss is negli- 2.8dB greater than the G-mixer.The slight discrepan- gible cy between 2.8 and 3dB is due to the larger parasitic capacitance at the drain of the transconductor tran- 2.3 Noise analysis sistors. Output noise of the mixer derives from the load 2.2 Linearity analysis stage,switching stage,and transconductor stage,in different proportions and from different frequencies. In commutating mixers,the linearity is limited by The loads of the mixer contribute noise in the in- termediate frequency (IF).Since the loads of the Q- 10 mixer and G-mixer are identical,the output noise due 8 to the load stage is also the same,with power spectral 6 density (PSD) 4 Vi.Lod 4kTRL (12) 2 0 -G-mixer As far as the mixer is concerned,noise origina- Q-mixer ting in the transconductor stage is indistinguishable from the RF input signal,so the noise at frequencies 0.2 0.40.6 0.8 1.0 fo±fir,3fio±fr,5fio±fr…is down-converted to LO amplitude/V IF at output,in the same way as the input signalte.
