Abstract

See full text

An apparatus includes a radio-frequency (RF) receiver. The RF receiver includes a single-balanced passive mixer driven by the output of a low noise amplifier (LNA) and a passive filter driven by an output of the single-balanced passive mixer. The RF receiver further includes a programmable gain amplifier (PGA) having an input resistance that generates noise, where the PGA is driven by an output of the passive filter, and the noise generated by the input resistance of the PGA is suppressed.
