A satellite positioning system (SPS) receiver that can provide good performance with low power consumption is described. The SPS receiver may be operated in one of multiple modes, which may be associated with different bias current settings for the SPS receiver. One of the modes may be selected based on output power level of a transmitter co-located with the SPS receiver. The bias current of an LNA, a mixer, and/or an LO generator within the SPS receiver may be set based on the selected mode. In one design, a first (e.g., lower power) mode may be selected for the SPS receiver if the transmitter output power level is below a switch point. A second (e.g., high linearity) mode may be selected if the transmitter output power level is above the switch point. The second mode is associated with more bias current for the SPS receiver than the first mode. |
