Abstract:
In an embodiment a radiofrequency doubler includes a first transistor and a second transistor connected in parallel between a first differential output and a first terminal of a current source configured to provide a bias current, a second terminal of the current source being connected to a first supply potential, a third transistor connected between the first terminal of the current source and a second differential output, a circuit configured to apply an AC component of a first differential input and a first DC voltage to a gate of the first transistor, apply an AC component of a second differential input and the first DC voltage to a gate of the second transistor and apply a second DC voltage to a gate of the third transistor, and a feedback loop configured to control the first voltage or the second voltage from a difference between DC components of the first and second differential outputs so as to equalize the DC components.
