By implementing the sampling process at an AC ground node, rather than at a signal side, and adding a gated transistor (610 and 620) in the signal path, the present invention reduces the interdependency between gain and linearity in a switched capacitor mixer circuit, supplies higher power without sacrificing area and simplifies the implementation of the RF switch. Charge boosting circuitry (630) allows a reduction in the effective size of a series switch (610 and 620) that follows a transconductance element (115).
