the LOX1 port. Disabling the LO doubler has the bene-
fit of reducing the supply current by 15mA. See Tables
2 and 3 for the LO input frequency ranges.
LOX1 and LOX2 are single-ended LO inputs that
achieve a return loss of typically -20dB over the speci-
fied LO input frequency range. They are internally
biased and require a DC-blocking capacitor. To
improve LOX2 input return loss, use a series inductor
between the blocking capacitor and LOX2 input. See
the Typical Operating Circuit for recommended compo-
nent values. See Tables 2 and 3 for LOX1 and LOX2
S-parameters. Leave the unused port unconnected.
IF Output
The MAX2683 is optimized for IF frequencies in the
100MHz to 400MHz range, while the MAX2684 is opti-
mized for IF frequencies in the 900MHz to 1000MHz
range. The differential, open-collector IFOUT- and
IFOUT+ ports require external pull-up inductors to V
