ABSTRACT:
An RF transmitter (104) includes a shared local oscillator circuit (126), transmit path circuitry (120, 122, 124), a divider (134), and a lowpass filter (322). The shared local oscillator circuit (126) generates a shared LO signal (116). The transmit path circuitry (120, 122, 124) mixes a baseband signal (107) and an IF mixing signal (116) to provide an IF signal (112), and converts the IF signal (112) to an RF transmit signal (105) at a desired frequency using an RF mixing signal received at a mixing input thereof. The divider (134) divides the shared LO signal (116) to provide an unfiltered RF mixing signal. The lowpass filter (322) has an input for receiving the unfiltered RF mixing signal, and an output coupled to the mixing input of the transmit path circuitry (120, 122, 124) for providing the RF mixing signal.
