Abstract:

This paper presents down conversion single and double balanced mixer. Mixer is designed with the help of CMOS Processing technology. Double balanced mixer consists of parallel connection of two single balanced mixer. Double balanced mixer topology has better port to port isolation compared to single balanced mixer. Various parameters are measured on mixer topology that is conversion gain and linearity parameters such as 1 dB compression point and third order intercept point. A comparison is made between single and double mixer and it shows that conversion gain and linearity parameters are improved in double balanced mixer.
