• Manufacturer Part Number: MAX2366
• Description: Complete Dual-Band Quadrature Transmitters
• Manufacturer: MAXIM [Maxim Integrated Products]

Two major concepts should be employed to produce a
noise-free and EMC-compliant transmitter: minimize cir-
cular current-loop area to reduce H-field radiation and
minimize voltage drops to reduce E-field radiation. To
minimize the circular current-loop area, bypass as
close to the part as possible and use the distributed
capacitance of a ground plane. To minimize voltage
drops, make V
traces short.
The “don't care” bits in the registers should be zero in
order to minimize electromagnetic radiation due to
unnecessary bit banging. RC filtering can also be used
to slow the clock edges on the 3-wire interface, reduc-
ing high-frequency spectral content. RC filtering also

provides for transient protection against IEC802 testing
by shunting high frequencies to ground, while the
series resistance attenuates the transients for error-free
operation. The same applies to the override pins
(SHDN, TXGATE, IDLE).
High-frequency bypass capacitors are required close
to the pins with a dedicated via to ground. The 48-pin
QFN-EP package provides minimal inductance ground
by using an exposed paddle under the part. Provide at
least five low-inductance vias under the paddle to
ground to minimize ground inductance. Use a solid
ground plane wherever possible. Any cutout in the
ground plane may act as slot radiator and reduce its
shield effectiveness.
Keep the RF LO traces as short as possible to reduce
LO radiation and susceptibility to interference.
