Systems, devices, and methods related to frequency converter arrangements are provided. For example, a frequency converter arrangement converts a first signal centered at a first frequency to a second signal centered at a second frequency different from the first frequency. The frequency converter arrangement includes local oscillator (LO) circuitry and in-phase, quadrature-phase (IQ) mixer circuitry coupled to the LO circuitry. The LO circuitry includes duty cycle correction circuitry to adjust a duty cycle of a pair of input clock signals. The duty cycle correction circuitry includes coarse tuning circuitry responsive to a digital calibration code, and analog tuning loop circuitry. The LO circuitry further includes quadrature divider circuitry coupled to an output of the duty cycle correction circuitry, where the quadrature divider circuitry generates an in-phase LO signal and a quadrature-phase LO signal from a pair of output clock signals at outputs of the duty cycle correction circuitry.
