Abstract
According to one embodiment, a transformer-based in-phase and quadrature (IQ) includes a differential balun having a first inductor and a second inductor. The first inductor has a first input terminal and a first output terminal. The second inductor has a second input terminal and a second output terminal. Additionally, the IQ generator circuit includes a third inductor magnetically coupled with the first inductor. The third inductor has a first isolation terminal and a third output terminal. The IQ generator circuit also includes a fourth inductor magnetically coupled with the second inductor. The fourth inductor has a second isolation terminal and a fourth output terminal. The IQ generator circuit additionally includes a first transistor coupled to the first input terminal of the first inductor. Further, the generator circuit includes a second transistor coupled to the second input terminal of the second inductor. The first transistor, the second transistor, the first inductor, and the second inductor form a part of a differential amplifier.
