Abstract
In an embodiment, an apparatus includes a component of a receiver path to receive and process an incoming signal. At least one element of the component is controllable based on a DC output of the component, to compensate for a second order intermodulation product of the apparatus. As one example, the component is a differential amplifier including a first transistor and a second transistor.
