What effect does an amplifier have on the phase noise? and What effect does a mixer have on phase noise?
This is a general question assuming that the amp and mixer are ideal.
ie: if my PN is -80 dBc/Hz before a 20 dB amp, does the PN get amplified to -60 dBc/Hz?
ie: if my IF and LO both have -80 dBc/Hz before the mixer, what would you expect at the RF port?
Thanks
