An illustrative circuit may include mixer circuitry including multiple inputs and at least one output, where the multiple inputs are connected across a local oscillator. The circuit may further include a terminal Radio Frequency (RF) output circuitry that is isolated from the local oscillator, where the at least one output of the mixer circuitry is directly connected to an input of the terminal RF output circuitry. The circuit may further include terminal Intermediate Frequency (IF) output circuitry that is isolated from the local oscillator, where the at least one output of the mixer circuitry is directly connected to an input of the terminal IF output circuitry.

An apparatus is disclosed for oscillator leakage calibration. In example aspects, the apparatus includes a mixer circuit and calibration circuitry. The mixer circuit has a first stage including at least one transistor coupled between a mixer input and a mixer output and a second stage including one or more transistors coupled between the at least one transistor and the mixer output. The mixer circuit also has tuning circuitry coupled to the at least one transistor. The calibration circuitry includes at least one resistor coupled between a power distribution node and at least one mixer node, with the at least one mixer node coupled between the at least one transistor and the one or more transistors, and at least one switch coupled between the power distribution node and the at least one mixer node. The calibration circuitry also includes controller circuitry coupled between the mixer node and the tuning circuitry.

The disclosure relates to a Gilbert mixer. Example embodiments include a Gilbert mixer that includes first and second multi-finger field effect transistor, FET, devices, each including gate fingers arranged between alternating source terminals and drain terminals; first and second pairs of voltage rails arranged across the first and second FET devices respectively, each of the first and second pairs including an upper rail and a lower rail; a first interconnect connecting the upper rail of the first pair and the lower rail of the second pair to a first input terminal; and a second interconnect connecting the lower rail of the first pair and the upper rail of the second pair to a second input terminal. Gate fingers of the first FET device are connected to the first pair of voltage rails and gate fingers of the second FET device are connected to the second pair of voltage rails.
