    Abstract: An output driver with programmable single-ended and differential outputs includes a first switch, a first output attenuator, and a programmable attenuator. The first switch is coupled in a shunt configuration to a first path of a differential output of a first amplifier. The first output attenuator is included in the first path and is coupled to the first switch in accordance with the shunt configuration. The programmable attenuator is included in a second path of the differential output of the first amplifier.

    Abstract: An apparatus is disclosed for mixer biasing with baseband filter common-mode voltage. In an example aspect, the apparatus includes a mixer, a baseband filter, and a bias circuit. The mixer has a mixer transistor that is coupled to a bias node and a baseband node. The baseband filter is coupled to the mixer via the baseband node. The baseband filter is configured to operate with a common-mode reference voltage that is associated with a common-mode voltage applied at the baseband node. The bias circuit is coupled to the baseband filter and the bias node. The bias circuit is configured to receive the common-mode reference voltage from the baseband filter and generate, at the bias node, a bias voltage for biasing the mixer transistor based on the common-mode reference voltage.
