Zusammenfassung: | In an embodiment, a circuit for tripling frequency is configured to receive an input voltage (Vin) having a sinusoidal shape and a base frequency. The circuit has a first and a second transistor pair that are cross-coupled, and a trans-characteristics f(Vin) approximating a polynomial nominal trans-characteristic given byf(Vin)=(3AVin-4A3Vin3)gmwhere A represents an amplitude of the input voltage and gm is a transconductance of transistors of the first and second transistor pairs. |
