Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for compensating local oscillator leakage in a mixer. An example mixer includes a first double-balanced mixer core and a second double-balanced mixer. The first double-balanced mixer may comprise differential output nodes and may be configured to mix a first input signal with a first local oscillator signal. The second double-balanced mixer core may comprise second differential output nodes and may be configured to mix a second input signal with a second local oscillator signal. The second input signal may be approximately 180° out of phase with the first input signal. The second local oscillator signal may be approximately 180° out of phase with the first local oscillator signal. The differential output nodes may be electrically connected to the second differential output nodes, and the first double-balanced mixer core and the second double-balanced mixer core may be arranged to compensate for local oscillator leakage.

Abstract: Radio frequency (RF) switches with controllable resonant frequency are provided herein. In certain embodiments, an RF switch includes a stack of two or more field-effect transistors (FETs) electrically connected between a first terminal and a second terminal. Additionally, the RF switch further includes an inductor connected between the first terminal and the second terminal and in parallel with the stack of FETs. A first portion of the FETs are controlled to turn on or off the RF switch. Additionally, a second portion of the FETs are controlled to provide tuning to a resonant frequency of the RF switch when the RF switch is turned off.
