Abstract: The disclosure relates to technology for a receiver having a receive signal path including a mixer, a differential fixed gain or variable gain amplifier, and a differential filter. The mixer is configured to receive an RF signal, receive an oscillator signal, and output a differential down converted signal at one of a baseband or intermediate frequency (IF). The amplifier is downstream of the mixer and configured to receive the differential down converted signal from the mixer, apply a gain thereto, and output an amplified differential signal. The filter is downstream of the amplifier and configured filter the amplified differential signal received from the amplifier, and output a filtered differential signal. By locating the differential filter downstream of the differential amplifier within the receive signal path, distortion caused by the mixer is mitigated compared to if the filter were located upstream of the filter.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to technology for a fully differential adjustable gain device that includes differential input terminals, differential output terminals, fully differential signal processing circuitry, and first and second cross-coupled segments. The first cross-coupled segment is coupled between differential input terminals of the fully differential adjustable gain device and a negative input of the fully differential signal processing circuitry. The second cross-coupled segment is coupled between differential input terminals of the fully differential adjustable gain device and a positive input of the fully differential signal processing circuitry. The fully differential adjustable gain device has a gain that is adjustable by adjusting values of the first and second cross-coupled segments, while maintaining a substantially consistent frequency response and a substantially consistent input impedance of the fully differential adjustable gain device, so long as a specified relationship between values of the first and second cross-coupled segments is kept substantially constant.
