Linear Technology 

LTC5542

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION

The RF input impedance and input reflection coefficient,

versus RF frequency, is listed in Table 1. The reference

plane for this data is pin 2 of the IC, with no external

matching, and the LO is driven at 2.1GHz.

LO Inputs

The mixer’s LO input circuit, shown in Figure 5, consists

of an integrated SPDT switch, a balun transformer, and

a two-stage high-speed limiting differential amplifier to

drive the mixer core. The LTC5542’s LO amplifiers are

optimized for the 1.7GHz to 2.5GHz LO frequency range.

LO frequencies above or below this frequency range may

be used with degraded performance.

The LO switch is designed for high isolation and fast

(<50ns) switching. This allows the use of two active

synthesizers in frequency-hopping applications. If only

one synthesizer is used, then the unused LO input may

be grounded. The LO switch is powered by VCC3 (Pin 14)

and controlled by the LOSEL logic input (Pin 9). The LO1

and LO2 inputs are always 50Ω-matched when VCC is

applied to the chip, even when the chip is shutdown. The

DC resistance of the selected LO input is approximately

23Ω and the unselected input is approximately 50Ω. A

logic table for the LO switch is shown in Table 2. Measured

LO input return loss is shown in Figure 6.

LO2

The LO amplifiers are powered by VCC1 and VCC2 (pin 8

and pin 6). When the chip is enabled (SHDN = low), the

internal bias circuit provides a regulated 4mA current to the

amplifier’s bias input, which in turn causes the amplifiers

to draw approximately 88mA of DC current. This 4mA

reference current is also connected to LOBIAS (Pin 7)

to allow modification of the amplifier’s DC bias current

for special applications. The recommended application

circuits require no LO amplifier bias modification, so this

pin should be left open-circuited.
