This up-conversion mixer can convert a 100-MHz intermediate frequency into a higher 1.8-GHz radio frequency for wireless applications. A high-linearity mixer was achieved by employing the derivative superposition (DS) method and a source degeneration resistor, while using a folded mixer to achieve low voltages. The post-layout simulation result was a conversion gain of 5 dB, an input third-order intercept point (IIP3) of 14.6 dBm, supply voltage of 1.2 V, and a power consumption of 9.54 mW.","PeriodicalId":434595,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE International Meeting for Future of Electron Devices, Kansai","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-06-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127564640","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As a result, the stable operation was confirmed for the wide Vth range of 0.25V-0.65V.
