Abstract
A transceiver system including a common receiver and transmitter oscillator. The transceiver system may include transmitter circuitry, receiver circuitry, and a first oscillator. The first oscillator may provide a transmit frequency to a mixer in the transmitter circuitry to generate a transmitter RF signal. Furthermore, the first oscillator may also provide the transmit frequency to a first stage mixer in the receiver circuitry to down-convert a receiver RF signal from a receive frequency to an intermediate frequency (IF). The receiver circuitry may include a second oscillator and a second stage mixer. The second oscillator may provide an IF frequency to the second stage mixer to down-convert receiver signals at IF to a lower frequency. The receiver circuitry may filter out transmitter RF feedthrough signals without using a SAW filter. The transmitter circuitry, the receiver circuitry, and the first oscillator may be included in a single IC.
