Abstract

Methods and apparatuses for tuning source impedance for at least a portion of a receive path in a radio frequency front-end. An exemplary circuit generally includes a first tunable resonant circuit having an output coupled to an input of the at least the portion of the receive path and a second tunable resonant circuit having an input coupled to the output of the first tunable resonant circuit and to the input of the at least the portion of the receive path. The circuit also includes a first control input coupled to the first tunable resonant circuit and configured to adjust an impedance of the first tunable resonant circuit based on a frequency response of an output of the at least the portion of the receive path, and a second control input coupled to the second tunable resonant circuit and configured to adjust an admittance of the second tunable resonant circuit.
