A mixer includes a mixing stage, and a first transistor and a second transistor coupled to the mixing stage. A gate of the first transistor is coupled to a first input of the mixer, and a gate of the second transistor is coupled to a second input of the mixer. The mixer also includes a first source resistor coupled to a source of the first transistor, and a second source resistor coupled to a source of the second transistor. The mixer further includes an amplifier having a first input coupled to the source of the first transistor, and a second input coupled to the source of the second transistor. The amplifier is configured to adjust at least one bias voltage of at least one of the first transistor and the second transistor based on a differential voltage between the first and second inputs of the amplifier.
A mixer, comprising:
A method of operating a mixer, wherein the mixer includes a mixing stage, a first transistor coupled to the mixing stage, and a second transistor coupled to the mixing stage, the method comprising:
