ABSTRACT:
Various mixer topologies, configured to cancel various low order spurs. The mixer topologies each include a pair of mixers and a plurality of couplers. The couplers are configured to cancel specific spurs. As such, the mixer topology eliminates the need for band splitting thus allowing larger input frequency ranges and allows for simpler and less expensive filtering.
