Abstract
Circuits comprising: a plurality of LNTA branches, each comprising: a cascode common-source (CCS) LNTA, a plurality of passive mixers (PMs), and a plurality of baseband two-stage Miller compensated TIAs (BB2S-TIAs); a plurality of mixer-first branches, each comprising: a plurality of RF switches, a plurality of baseband folded-cascode TIAs (BBFC-TIAs), and a plurality of Cherry-Hooper amplifiers, wherein an input to each of the BBFC-TIAs is provided by an output of at least one of the RF switches, and an input to each of the amplifiers is provided by an output of a corresponding one of the BBFC-TIAs; a first plurality of clock modulators that provide first non-overlapping modulated clocks that are provided to an input of the PMs; and a second plurality of clock modulators that provide a plurality of tri-level modulated mixer clocks that control the switching of the RF switches.
