CALIBRATION OF PASSIVE HARMONIC-REJECTION MIXER

摘要

An electronic device comprising a passive harmonic-rejection mixer (400) and a calibration circuitry (425). The passive harmonic rejection mixer has an input (102) connected to several sub-mixer stages (402), and the sub-mixer stages are connected to a summing module (406, 408) for generating the output (104). Each sub-mixing stage comprises a gating module (414), an amplifier (416), and a weighting module (418), the gating module selectively passing the input signal or the input signal with inverted polarity under the control of control signals. The calibration circuitry (425) is adapted to input a reference signal (430) to the input of the mixer, receive an output signal (104) from the output of the mixer, and set the weights (K1, K2, K3, K4) of the weighting modules to make the output signal match an expected output signal.
