A dual-mode analog baseband circuit is implementable on a single IC with reduced chip area. The baseband portion of the IC includes a single dual-mode complex filter that is reconfigurable to be a filter for Bluetooth signals or for wireless local area network (wireless LAN) format signals, such as 802.11b, and includes a single dual-mode amplifier that is reconfigurable to amplify Bluetooth signals or wireless LAN format signals.
