GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The ADRF6655 is a high dynamic range active mixer with integrated PLL and VCO. The synthesizer uses a programmable integer-N/fractional-N PLL to generate a local oscillator input to the mixer. The PLL reference input is nominally 20 MHz. The reference input can be divided by or multiplied by and then applied to the PLL phase detector. The PLL can support input reference frequencies from 10 MHz to 160 MHz. The phase detector output controls a charge pump whose output is integrated in an off-chip loop filter. The loop filter output is then applied to an integrated VCO. The VCO output at 2 × f oscillator (LO) divider as well as to a programmable PLL divider.
is then applied to a local
LO
ADRF6655
The programmable divider is controlled by an Σ-Δ modulator (SDM). The modulus of the SDM can be programmed between 1 and 2047.
The broadband, active mixer employs a bias adjustment to allow for enhanced IP3 performance at the expense of increased supply current. The mixer provides an input IP3 exceeding 25 dBm with 12 dB single sideband NF under typical conditions. The IIP3 can be boosted to ~29 dBm with roughly 20 mA of additional supplied current. The mixer provides a typical voltage conversion gain of 6 dB with a 200 Ω differential IF output impedance. The IF output can be externally matched to support upconversion over a limited frequency range.
The ADRF6655 is fabricated using an advanced silicon-germanium BiCMOS process. It is packaged in a 40-lead, exposed-paddle, Pb-free, 6 mm × 6 mm LFCSP. Performance is specified over a
−40°C to +85°C temperature range.
