Abstract
A circuit includes a multiplier circuit including a mixer configured to multiply a first differential input signal and a second differential input signal. The mixer includes a plurality of transistors including control terminals. The control terminals of the plurality of transistors receive a bias signal and the first differential input signal. A bias circuit is configured to generate the bias signal. The bias signal generated by the bias circuit is based on a voltage threshold of one of the plurality of transistors and a product of constant reference current and a bias resistance.
