Abstract:
A circuit for suppressing undesired sub-harmonics includes a plurality of mixers, wherein the plurality of mixers are connected in parallel; a plurality of local oscillator signals (LO), wherein each of the plurality of LOs is associated with one of the plurality of mixers; an input to receive a plurality of phases of a driving clock, wherein each of the plurality of phases is a sub-harmonic of the driving clock, and wherein each phase of the driving clock is distributed to one of the plurality of mixers; wherein the plurality of mixers are configured to suppress one or more of the plurality of phases of the driving clock and amplify a desired phase of the driving clock.
