A mixer is provided. The mixer comprises a Gilbert cell mixer core, a pair of load devices, a transconductor cell, and a current injection branch. The Gilbert cell mixer core has first and second nodes, receives a first differential input signal, and provides a differential output signal at the first nodes. The load devices are respectively coupled between the first nodes of the Gilbert cell mixer core and a first fixed voltage. The transconductor cell is coupled between the second nodes and a second fixed voltage and receives a second differential input signal. The dynamic current injection branch comprises first and second pairs of MOS transistors each connected in parallel and having drains commonly coupled to a corresponding second node and gates receiving a third differential input signal. There is a phase difference of 90° between the first and third differential input signals.
