GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The AD83471 is a broadband direct quadrature demodulator with RF and baseband automatic gain control (AGC) amplifiers. It is suitable for use in many communications receivers, performing quadrature demodulation directly to baseband frequencies. The input frequency range is 800 MHz to 2.7 GHz. The outputs can be connected directly to popular A-to-D converters such as the

AD9201 and AD9283.

The RF input signal goes through two stages of variable gain amplifiers prior to two Gilbert-cell mixers. The LO quadrature phase splitter employs polyphase filters to achieve high quadrature accuracy and amplitude balance over the entire operating frequency range. Separate I and Q channel variable gain amplifiers follow the baseband outputs of the mixers. The RF and baseband amplifiers together provide 69.5 dB of gain control. A precision control circuit sets the linear-in-dB RF gain response to the gain control voltage.

U.S. patents issued and pending.

Baseband level detectors are included for use in an AGC loop to maintain the output level. The demodulator dc offsets are minimized by an internal loop, whose time constant is controlled by external capacitor values. The offset control can also be overridden by forcing an external voltage at the offset nulling pins.

The baseband variable gain amplifier outputs are brought offchip for filtering before final amplification. By inserting a channel selection filter before each output amplifier, high level out-of-channel interferers are eliminated. Additional internal circuitry also allows the user to set the dc common-mode level at the baseband outputs.

Stresses above those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress rating only; functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions above those indicated in the operational section of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.

ESD CAUTION

ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although this product features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on devices subjected to high energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.

1, 28 LOIN, LOIP A

Circuit

LO Input. For optimum performance, these inputs are differentially driven. Typical input drive level is equal to −8 dBm. To improve the match to a 50 Ω source, connect a 200 Ω shunt resistor between LOIP

and LOIN. A single-ended drive is possible, but slightly increases LO leakage. 2 VPS1 Positive Supply for LO Section. Decouple VPS1 with 0.1 µF and 100 pF capacitors. 3, 4 IOPN, IOPP B

I-Channel Differential Baseband Output. Typical output swing is equal to 760 mV p-p differential in

AGC mode. The common-mode level on these pins is programmed by the voltage on VCMO. 5 VCMO C

Baseband Amplifier Common-Mode Voltage. The voltage applied to this pin sets the output common-

mode level of the baseband amplifiers. This pin can either be connected to VREF (Pin 14) or to a

reference voltage from another device (typically an ADC). 6 IAIN D

I-Channel Baseband Amplifier Input. This pin, which has a high input impedance, should be biased to

VREF (approximately 1 V). If IAIN is connected directly to IMXO, biasing is provided by IMXO. If an ac-

coupled filter is placed between IMXO and IAIN, this pin can be biased from VREF through a 1 kΩ

resistor. The gain from IAIN to the differential outputs IOPN/IOPP is 30 dB. 7, 23 COM3 Ground for Biasing and Baseband Sections. 8, 22 IMXO, QMXO B

I-Channel and Q-Channel Baseband Mixer/VGA Outputs. Low impedance outputs with bias levels equal to

VREF. IMXO and QMXO are typically connected to IAIN and QAIN, respectively, either directly or through

filters. These outputs have a maximum current limit of about 1.5 mA. This allows for a 600 mV p-p swing into

a 200 Ω load. This corresponds to an input level of −40 dBm @ a maximum gain of 39.5 dB. At lower output

levels, IMXO and QMXO can drive a lower load resistance, subject to the same current limit. 9 COM2 RF Section Ground. 10, 11 RFIN, RFIP E

RF Input. RFIN must be ac-coupled to ground. The RF input signal should be ac-coupled into RFIP. For

a broadband 50 Ω input impedance, connect a 200 Ω resistor from the signal side of the RFIP coupling

capacitor to ground. Note that RFIN and RFIP are not interchangeable differential inputs. RFIN is the

ground reference for the input system. 12 VPS2 Positive Supply for RF Section. Decouple VPS2 with 0.1 µF and 100 pF capacitors. 13, 16 IOFS, QOFS F

I-Channel and Q-Channel Offset Nulling Inputs. To null the dc offset on the I-channel and Q-channel

mixer outputs (IMXO, QMXO), connect a 0.1 µF capacitor from these pins to ground. Alternately, a

forced voltage of approximately 1 V on these pins disables the offset compensation circuit. 14 VREF G

Reference Voltage Output. This output voltage (1 V) is the main bias level for the device and can be

used to externally bias the inputs and outputs of the baseband amplifiers. The VREF pin should be

decoupled with a 0.1 F capacitor to ground. 15 ENBL H Chip Enable Input. Active high. 17 VGIN C

Gain Control Input. The voltage on this pin controls the gain on the RF and baseband VGAs. The gain

control is applied in parallel to all VGAs. The gain control voltage range is from 0.2 V to 1.2 V and

corresponds to a gain range from +39.5 dB to −30 dB. This is the gain to the output of the baseband

VGAs (that is, QMXO and IMXO). There is an additional 30 dB of gain in the baseband amplifiers. Note

that the gain control function has a negative sense (that is, increasing control voltage decreases gain).

In AGC mode, connect this pin directly to VAGC.

AGC Output. This pin provides the output voltage from the on-board detector. In AGC mode, connect this pin directly to VGIN.

Q-Channel Baseband Amplifier Input. Bias this high input impedance pin to VREF (approximately 1 V). If QAIN is directly connected to QMXO, biasing is provided by QMXO. If an ac-coupled filter is placed between QMXO and QAIN, this pin can be biased from VREF through a 1 kΩ resistor. The gain from QAIN to the QOPN/QOPP differential outputs is 30 dB.
