摘要
We demonstrate by measurements on a test circuit that a 5 GHz relaxation oscillator with accurate quadrature outputs and low phase-noise can be obtained, and that these favorable properties can be preserved while the mixing function is performed by this oscillator. This is useful either to measure the quadrature error at a low frequency, or to implement a low-intermediate frequency (IF) or zero-IF (homodyne) radio frequency front-end.
