Low-Frequency Noise in CMOS Switched-gm Mixers: A Quasi-Analytical Model

Flicker noise contributed by active mixers usually compromises the overall sensitivity level of direct-conversion receivers (DCRs). In this article, a qualitative quasi-analytical model has been developed to in-depth explain the flicker noise mechanism existing in the switched-gm active mixer in whi...
