  • Publication number: 20230155552
    Abstract: An apparatus comprising a local oscillator (LO) for driving a mixer, the LO being configured to oscillate at an oscillation frequency, and generate a first set of LO signals, wherein each of the first set of LO signals has a LO signal frequency equal to a first multiplication factor m multiplied by the oscillation frequency, the first multiplication factor m, being an integer greater than or equal to two, and each of the first set of LO signals is separated by adjacent LO signals by a phase difference equal to 360° divided by a first variable n, the first variable n being an integer that is greater than or equal to two.

  • Patent number: 10559419
    Abstract: An inductor arrangement has a first inductor structure having one or more inductors at least partially on a first layer and a second inductor structure having one or more inductors at least partially on a second layer. The inductors are arranged such that currents induced by an external magnetic field are substantially cancelled in at least one of the first inductor structure and the second inductor structure. The, or each, inductor of the second inductor structure overlaps, at least partially, the, or each, inductor of the first inductor structure. An oscillator circuit having an inductor arrangement is also presented.
