Passive switching mixer volatge conversion gain calculation and its varition with frequency

lahsivece

Hi All,

I am trying to do a passive switching mixer volatge conversion gain simulation. The circuit consists of a MOS transistor driving a resistive load. The gate of MOS is driven by a rail to rail square pulse. 

I tried the steps given in the Application note "Mixer design using Spectre RF " , but it didn't give meaningful results.

Is there any application note that deals specifically with passive switching mixers with LO being driven by a rai to rail signal or a similar situation ?

Best Regards

Vishal
