    摘要: An RF receiver front end includes a variable gain low noise amplifier and/or a variable gain mixer to provide gain variability in the receiver. This gain variability may be used during, for example, automatic gain control operations. In at least one embodiment, the variable gain LNA is a broadband device that is capable of supporting multiple wireless standards.

    摘要: A gain-step transconductor circuit operates with multiple gain values. The gain can be stepped from one gain value to another by selecting a different signal path between an input node and an output amplifier. The output amplifier may operate as a common source amplifier or a common gate amplifier.

    摘要: A radio receiver measures a signal quality metric and modifies attributes of a local oscillator signal in response thereto. A digital signal processor may be used to determine a signal-to-noise-plus-distortion ratio (SNDR) of a baseband signal, and the overlap of two quadrature-related local oscillator signals may be modified.

    摘要: An apparatus reducing non-linearity in an output signal presented at an output locus of an amplifier device having an output unit coupled with the output locus, the output unit having at least one first operating characteristic contributing to the non-linearity, includes a compensating unit coupled with the output locus. The compensating unit has at least one second operating characteristic cooperating with the at least one first operating characteristic to effect the reducing.
