Linearization Technique
Does n matters if constant Gm is of importance?
-
CMOS Mixers
Most of the bipolar design concepts can be applied to CMOS directly, ⇒ only LO requirement differs.Small LO signal ⇒ lower conversion gain, higher noise, higher nonlinearity.
To make the switching sharp for a given LO ⇒ increase the width of the differential pair or reduce the bias current ⇒ lower speed or lower gain.

2-to-1 Selector
Finite rising and falling edges ⇒ timing issues

Output Data Cleanup with Flipflop
Data skew and clock imbalance would cause output distortion directly.A full-rate FF can remedy this.
-
Sampling Alignment Using Latches
Usually requires latches to provide 0.5 UI phase shift.
-
N-to-1 Multiplexer with Tree Structure
⇒ and also, clock distribution.
-
Demultiplexer
Reverse operation of MUX.Much more relaxed clock/data phase requirement.Usually work with CDR.
