Design of LNA+Mixer for Multi-Band WCDMA

A small, low-cost, single-chip multi-band WCDMA/GSM transceiver solution is needed to address the high growth segment of 3G enabled smart phone ICs, while still keeping compatibility with widely deployed 2G GSM networks. In this thesis, an inductor-less LNA+mixer combination for multi-band WCDMA is presented. By designing the mixer for high IIP2...
