PIN

NAME

FUNCTION

1

CEXT-

Inverting Input Port of VGA2 I/Q Gain Imbalance Correction Circuitry. Connect an
external capacitor between CEXT- and CEXT+ to activate the circuit. Short CEXT- to
CEXT+ to disable.

2

CEXT+

Noninverting Input Port of VGA2 I/Q Gain Imbalance Correction Circuitry. Connect an
external capacitor between CEXT+ and CEXT- to activate the circuit. Short CEXT- to
CEXT+ to disable.

3, 12, 17, 29, 38,

48

V

CC

Supply Voltage. Bypass V

CC

to GND with capacitors as close to pin as possible.

4

X2_EN

Logic-Level Enable for Doubler Circuitry. Drive logic low to turn on the doubler
(f

LO

= f

RFIN/2

). Drive logic high to bypass the doubler (f

LO

= f

RFIN

).

5, 7, 8, 13, 15,

32, 44, 46

GND

Ground. Connect to ground plane with minimal inductance.

6

LNAIN

LNA Input. Connect to GND to turn the LNA off. Off-chip 50

match required.

9

GAIN_SET

LNA Gain Select Input. Drive logic high to select the high-gain mode. Drive logic low to
select low-gain mode.

10

SHDN

Shutdown Control Input. Drive logic low to enable shutdown mode.

11

AGC

Automatic Gain-Control Input for AGC. Bypass this pin with a 1000pF capacitor to
GND to minimize coupling.

14

LNAOUT

LNA Output. This pin requires an external pullup inductor and off-chip 50

match.

16

MIX_Q

Mixer Q-Channel Baseband Output. Connect external series capacitor to AC-couple
the output to the load.

18

QIN1+

Noninverting VGA1, Q-Channel Baseband Input

19

QIN1-

Inverting VGA1, Q-Channel Baseband Input

20

DCQ1+

Noninverting Offset Correction Input for Q-Channel VGA1 Amplifier

21

DCQ1-

Inverting Offset Correction Input for Q-Channel VGA1 Amplifier

22

QOUT1

Q-Channel VGA1 Amplifier Baseband Output

23

MIXTNK

Inductive Common-Mode Degeneration Pin for Mixer Stages

24

QIN2+

Noninverting VGA2, Q-Channel Baseband Input

25

QIN2-

Inverting VGA2, Q-Channel Baseband Input

26

DCQ2+

Noninverting Offset Correction Input for Q-Channel VGA2 Amplifier

27

DCQ2-

Inverting Offset Correction Input for Q-Channel VGA2 Amplifier

28

QOUT2

Q-Channel VGA2 Amplifier Baseband Output

30

RFIN+

I/Q Mixers Inverting Input. For narrow frequency bands between 1.8GHz and 2.5GHz,
port must be matched using external matching components.
