An I/Q mixer and processing method for a radar system include an RF input and an LO input. Phase shifters apply a selectable phase shift to the LO signal to produce a first phase-shifted version of the LO signal and a second phase-shifted version of the LO signal, the first and second phase-shifted versions of the LO signal being in quadrature. A first set of switches is controllable to selectively apply the selectable phase shift to the LO signal. A first mixer unit receives the RF signal at a first input of the first mixer unit, and a second mixer unit receives the RF signal at a first input of the second mixer unit. A second set of switches is controllable to apply one of the first and second phase-shifted versions of the LO signal to one of a second input of the first mixer unit and a second input of the second mixer unit and to apply the other of the first and second phase-shifted versions of the LO signal to the other of the second input of the first mixer unit and the second input of the second mixer unit. A counter generates a count for sequencing through states of the first and second sets of switches.
