A frequency mixer includes a semiconductor substrate. An input current
feedback amplifier is formed on the semiconductor substrate and receives
a radio frequency (RF) signal and a local oscillator (LO) signal. An
inverting current feedback amplifier is formed on the semiconductor
substrate and connected to the input current feedback amplifier for
inverting the LO signal and producing a half-wave signal. An output
current feedback amplifier is formed on the semiconductor substrate and
connected to an output of the input and inverting current feedback
amplifiers and operative as an inverting summer for the RF and LO signals
such that the output polarity of the RF signal is reversed.
