Dual, SiGe, High-Linearity, 1700MHz to 2200MHz Downconversion Mixer with LO Buffer/Switch
General Description
The MAX19995A dual-channel downconverter is designed to provide 8.7dB of conversion gain, +24.8dBm input IP3, +13.5dBm 1dB input compression point, and a noise figure of 9.2dB for 1700MHz to 2200MHz diversity receiver applications. With an optimized LO frequency range of 1750MHz to 2700MHz, this mixer is ideal for high-side LO injection architectures. Low-side LO injection is supported by the MAX19995, which is pin-pin and functionally compatible with the MAX19995A. In addition to offering excellent linearity and noise performance, the MAX19995A also yields a high level of component integration. This device includes two doublebalanced passive mixer cores, two LO buffers, a dualinput LO selectable switch, and a pair of differential IF output amplifiers. Integrated on-chip baluns allow for single-ended RF and LO inputs. The MAX19995A requires a nominal LO drive of 0dBm and a typical supply current of 350mA at VCC = 5.0V, or 242mA at VCC = 3.3V. The MAX19995/MAX19995A are pin compatible with the MAX19985/MAX19985A series of 700MHz to 1000MHz mixers and pin similar to the MAX19997A/MAX19999 series of 1800MHz to 4000MHz mixers, making this entire family of downconverters ideal for applications where a common PCB layout is used across multiple frequency bands. The MAX19995A is available in a 6mm x 6mm, 36-pin thin QFN package with an exposed pad. Electrical performance is guaranteed over the extended temperature range (TC = -40C to +85C).

Note 1: Based on junction temperature TJ = TC + (JC x VCC x ICC). This formula can be used when the temperature of the exposed pad is known while the device is soldered down to a PCB. See the Applications Information section for details. The junction temperature must not exceed +150C. Note 2: Junction temperature TJ = TA + (JA x VCC x ICC). This formula can be used when the ambient temperature of the PCB is known. The junction temperature must not exceed +150C. Note 3: Package thermal resistances were obtained using the method described in JEDEC specification JESD51-7, using a fourlayer board. For detailed information on package thermal considerations, refer to www.maxim-ic.com/thermal-tutorial. Note 4: TC is the temperature on the exposed pad of the package. TA is the ambient temperature of the device and PCB.
Stresses beyond those listed under "Absolute Maximum Ratings" may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.

Note 6: All limits reflect losses of external components, including a 0.9dB loss at fIF = 350MHz due to the 4:1 transformer. Output measurements were taken at IF outputs of the Typical Application Circuit. Note 7: 100% production tested. Note 8: 100% production tested for functionality. Note 9: Maximum reliable continuous input power applied to the RF or IF port of this device is +12dBm from a 50 source. Note 10: Not production tested. Note 11: Measured with external LO source noise filtered so the noise floor is -174dBm/Hz. This specification reflects the effects of all SNR degradations in the mixer, including the LO noise as defined in Application Note 2021: Specifications and Measurement of Local Oscillator Noise in Integrated Circuit Base Station Mixers.

Dual, SiGe, High-Linearity, 1700MHz to 2200MHz Downconversion Mixer with LO Buffer/Switch
Detailed Description
The MAX19995A is a dual-channel downconverter designed to provide up to 8.7dB of conversion gain, +24.8dBm input IP3, +13.5dBm 1dB input compression point, and a noise figure as low as 9.2dB. In addition to its high-linearity performance, the MAX19995A achieves a high level of component integration. The device integrates two double-balanced mixers for two-channel downconversion. Both the main and diversity channels include a balun and matching circuitry to allow 50 single-ended interfaces to the RF ports and the two LO ports. An integrated singlepole/double-throw (SPDT) switch provides 50ns switching time between the two LO inputs, with 48dB of LO-to-LO isolation and -35dBm of LO leakage at the RF port. Furthermore, the integrated LO buffers provide a high drive level to each mixer core, reducing the LO drive required at the MAX19995A's inputs to a range of -3dBm to +3dBm. The IF ports for both channels incorporate differential outputs for downconversion, which are ideal for providing enhanced 2LO-2RF performance. Specifications are guaranteed over broad frequency ranges to allow for use in UMTS/WCDMA, LTE/WiMAX, DCS1800/PCS1900 GSM/EDGE, TD-SCDMA, and cdma2000 base stations. The MAX19995A is specified to operate over an RF input range of 1700MHz to 2200MHz, an LO range of 1750MHz to 2700MHz, and an IF range of 50MHz to 500MHz. The external IF components set the lower frequency range (see the Typical Operating Characteristics for details). Operation beyond these ranges is possible; see the Typical Operating Characteristics for additional information. Although this device is optimized for high-side LO injection applications, it can operate in low-side LO injection modes as well. However, performance degrades as fLO continues to decrease. For increased low-side LO performance, refer to the MAX19995 data sheet.
LO Inputs, Buffer, and Balun
The MAX19995A is optimized for a 1750MHz to 2700MHz LO frequency range. As an added feature, the MAX19995A includes an internal LO SPDT switch for use in frequency-hopping applications. The switch selects one of the two single-ended LO ports, allowing the external oscillator to settle on a particular frequency before it is switched in. LO switching time is typically 50ns, which is more than adequate for typical GSM applications. If frequency hopping is not employed, simply set the switch to either of the LO inputs. The switch is controlled by a digital input (LOSEL), where logic-high selects LO1 and logic-low selects LO2. LO1 and LO2 inputs are internally matched to 50, requiring only 39pF DC-blocking capacitors. If LOSEL is connected directly to a logic source, then voltage MUST be applied to VCC before digital logic is applied to LOSEL to avoid damaging the part. Alternatively, a 1k resistor can be placed in series at the LOSEL to limit the input current in applications where LOSEL is applied before VCC. The main and diversity channels incorporate a twostage LO buffer that allows for a wide-input power range for the LO drive. The on-chip low-loss baluns, along with LO buffers, drive the double-balanced mixers. All interfacing and matching components from the LO inputs to the IF outputs are integrated on-chip.
MAX19995A
High-Linearity Mixer
The core of the MAX19995A dual-channel downconverter consists of two double-balanced, high-performance passive mixers. Exceptional linearity is provided by the large LO swing from the on-chip LO buffers. When combined with the integrated IF amplifiers, the cascaded IIP3, 2LO-2RF rejection, and noise-figure performance are typically +24.8dBm, 64dBc, and 9.2dB, respectively.
Differential IF
The MAX19995A has an IF frequency range of 50MHz to 500MHz, where the low-end frequency depends on the frequency response of the external IF components. Note that these differential ports are ideal for providing enhanced IIP2 performance. Single-ended IF applications require a 4:1 (impedance ratio) balun to transform the 200 differential IF impedance to a 50 singleended system. After the balun, the return loss is typically 11.5dB. The user can use a differential IF amplifier on the mixer IF ports, but a DC block is required on both IFD+/IFD- and IFM+/IFM- ports to keep external DC from entering the IF ports of the mixer.
RF Port and Balun
The RF input ports of both the main and diversity channels are internally matched to 50, requiring no external matching components. A DC-blocking capacitor is required as the input is internally DC shorted to ground through the on-chip balun. The RF port input return loss is typically better than 16.5dB over the RF frequency range of 1700MHz to 2200MHz.

Applications Information
Input and Output Matching
The RF and LO inputs are internally matched to 50. No matching components are required. The RF port input return loss is typically better than 16.5dB over the RF frequency range of 1700MHz to 2200MHz and return loss at the LO ports is typically better than 15dB over the entire LO range. RF and LO inputs require only DC-blocking capacitors for interfacing. The IF output impedance is 200 (differential). For evaluation, an external low-loss 4:1 (impedance ratio) balun transforms this impedance to a 50 single-ended output (see the Typical Application Circuit).
Layout Considerations
A properly designed PCB is an essential part of any RF/microwave circuit. Keep RF signal lines as short as possible to reduce losses, radiation, and inductance. The load impedance presented to the mixer must be so that any capacitance from both IF- and IF+ to ground does not exceed several picofarads. For the best performance, route the ground pin traces directly to the exposed pad under the package. The PCB exposed pad MUST be connected to the ground plane of the PCB. It is suggested that multiple vias be used to connect this pad to the lower-level ground planes. This method provides a good RF/thermal-conduction path for the device. Solder the exposed pad on the bottom of the device package to the PCB. The MAX19995A evaluation kit can be used as a reference for board layout. Gerber files are available upon request at www.maxim-ic.com.
Reduced-Power Mode
Each channel of the MAX19995A has two pins (LO_ADJ_, IF_SET) that allow external resistors to set the internal bias currents. Nominal values for these resistors are given in Table 1. Larger value resistors can be used to reduce power dissipation at the expense of some performance loss. If 1% resistors are not readily available, substitute with 5% resistors. Significant reductions in power consumption can also be realized by operating the mixer with an optional supply voltage of 3.3V. Doing so reduces the overall power consumption by up to 54%. See the 3.3V Supply AC Electrical Characteristics table and the relevant 3.3V curves in the Typical Operating Characteristics section.
Power-Supply Bypassing
Proper voltage-supply bypassing is essential for highfrequency circuit stability. Bypass each VCC pin and TAPMAIN/TAPDIV with the capacitors shown in the Typical Application Circuit (see Table 1 for component values). Place the TAPMAIN/TAPDIV bypass capacitors to ground within 100 mils of the pin.
Exposed Pad RF/Thermal Considerations
The exposed pad (EP) of the MAX19995A's 36-pin thin QFN-EP package provides a low thermal-resistance path to the die. It is important that the PCB on which the MAX19995A is mounted be designed to conduct heat from the EP. In addition, provide the EP with a lowinductance path to electrical ground. The EP MUST be soldered to a ground plane on the PCB, either directly or through an array of plated via holes.
IND_EXT_ Inductors
For applications requiring optimum RF-to-IF and LO-toIF isolation, connect low-ESR inductors from IND_EXT_ (pins 15 and 31) to ground. When improved isolation is not required, connect IND_EXT_ to ground using 0 resistance. See the Typical Operating Characteristics to evaluate the isolation vs. inductor value tradeoff.
