Minimum LO Power for Proper Biasing
part is turned ON without any LO drive applied all currents will be extremely high.
The minimum LO required is approximately –9 dBm. Operation with LO input
powers below the minimum value causes the current to increase in all amplifier
stages. For higher LO input power levels the current stays relatively constant over a
wide range of LO powers. Proper matching of the LO amplifier is also important to
achieve the lowest current consumption and to minimize the required LO input
power.
Adjustable Current Level
(with higher current) and Reduced Current (lower linearity). To operate with reduced
current the voltage on pin 13 (RCV) should be set LOW. Some additional current
reduction can be achieved by reducing the voltage at pin 14 by placing a resistor
between VDD and pin 14. The current pulled by pin 14 is approximately 1 mA.
Higher currents can be realized by using a higher VDD voltage.
Tuning LO and IF Amplifiers:
allows a wide range of IF frequencies. Depending on the chosen frequency plan the
off chip components for the LO and IF amplifiers will need to be optimized. An
application circuit with all component values is provided for low side LO injection with
