The MAX2685's low-noise amplifier (LNA) and downconverter mixer comprise the major blocks of an RF front-end receiver. Optimized for 900MHz operation, the device's low noise figure, high gain, and high linearity make it ideal for cellular, cordless, and wireless data applications. A low supply current of 8.5mA (high-gain mode) and 3.8mA (low-gain mode) plus a low operating supply voltage range of +2.7V to +5.5V make it suitable for use in 3-cell NiCd or 1-cell lithium-ion (Li+) battery applications. A low-power shutdown mode further extends battery life by reducing supply current below 0.1µA.
The MAX2685 includes an LNA, LNA bypass switch, downconverter mixer, and local-oscillator (LO) buffer. The LNA has a low noise figure of 1.4dB, a high gain of 15dB, and an input third-order intercept point (IP3) of -4dBm. The mixer has a noise figure of 13dB, a gain of 6dB, and an input IP3 of +7dBm. In addition, an LNA bypass switch allows two levels of gain, reducing power consumption when high gain is not needed.
The downconverter mixer has a single-ended RF input port and differential IF output ports. Differential operation of the IF ports offers improved even-order harmonic rejection and increased immunity to noise. An LO buffer allows the LO port to be driven with only -8dBm of LO power. The MAX2685 is offered in a space-saving 16-pin QSOP package.
