ABSTRACT:
A circuit and method for reducing a phase error at the output terminal (48) of a multiplier circuit (41) is provided. The phase error arises when first and second input signals having asymmetric signal paths are multiplied in the multiplier circuit (41). A second multiplier circuit (42) multiplies the in-phase and quadrature signals and produces an output signal at an output terminal (49) which contains the phase error but with the opposite polarity as the phase error produced by the first multiplier circuit (41). The signals at the output terminals (48) and (49) are summed in a summing circuit (43) to produce a third output signal in which the phase error is canceled.
