Abstract
In certain aspects, an apparatus includes a plurality of phase generators configured to generate a first plurality of local oscillator (LO) phase signals, wherein the plurality of phase generators includes a first set of phase generators and a second set of phase generators. The apparatus also includes a duty cycle generator coupled to the plurality of phase generators, wherein the duty cycle generator is configured to receive the first plurality of LO phase signals and to generate a second plurality of LO phase signals by converting a duty cycle of each of the first plurality of LO phase signals. The first set of phase generators is located adjacent to a first side of the duty cycle generator and the second set of phase generators is located adjacent to a second side of the duty cycle generator, the second side being opposite the first side.
