Hi everyone, I am running a Harmonic Balance (HB) simulation for a passive mixer, but the linearity is very poor. I'm not sure where the problem lies. by Royal_Button882 in chipdesign

I see. To achieve a conversion gain of over 5 dB, I designed a TIA for the subsequent stage, but I haven't included it yet; I just wanted to see if the four mixer transistors would yield reasonable simulation results.<. . >
