lock-in amplifier howto
I am designing a gilbert mixer for using in lock-in amplifier. The LO and RF freqency is same(10kHz) to generate a dc voltage to be measured, I think it is a simplest useage for a mixer, can any one tell me if I need to use PSS, PAC and Pnoise in cadence to simulate the 1dB conversion gain, noise figure and IIP3? They are so complex and I am confused now.
I have done the dc and trans simulation now.
Thanks in advanced
