A transconductor circuit includes a first input device M1 and a second input device M2 each having a control terminal coupled to a radio frequency input signal, and a bias setting device MB having a control terminal coupled to the radio frequency input signal and an output coupled to the control terminal of each of said M1 and M2. MB is partitioned into two equal sized bias setting devices MB1 and MB2. In the preferred embodiment MB1 and MB2 are coupled to the control terminals of M1 and M2 for establishing a bias voltage at the control terminals of M1 and M2. The circuit is shown to substantially cancel second-order intermodulation distortion and to enhance a second order intercept point.
