ABLE KIT AVAIL ALUATION EV
High-Dynamic-Range, Direct Upconversion 1500MHz to 2500MHz Quadrature Modulator
General Description
The MAX2022 low-noise, high-linearity, direct upconversion quadrature modulator is designed for single and multicarrier 1800MHz to 2200MHz UMTS/WCDMA, cdma2000(R), and DCS/PCS base-station applications. Direct upconversion architectures are advantageous since they significantly reduce transmitter cost, part count, and power consumption as compared to traditional IF-based double upconversion systems. In addition to offering excellent linearity and noise performance, the MAX2022 also yields a high level of component integration. This device includes two matched passive mixers for modulating in-phase and quadrature signals, three LO mixer amplifier drivers, and an LO quadrature splitter. On-chip baluns are also integrated to allow for single-ended RF and LO connections. As an added feature, the baseband inputs have been matched to allow for direct interfacing to the transmit DAC, thereby eliminating the need for costly I/Q buffer amplifiers. The MAX2022 operates from a single +5V supply. It is available in a compact 36-pin thin QFN package (6mm x 6mm) with an exposed paddle. Electrical performance is guaranteed over the extended -40C to +85C temperature range. o o o o o o o

Detailed Description
The MAX2022 is designed for upconverting differential in-phase (I) and quadrature (Q) inputs from baseband to a 1500MHz to 2500MHz RF frequency range. Applications include single and multicarrier 1800MHz to 2200MHz UMTS/WCDMA, cdma2000, and DCS/PCS base stations. Direct upconversion architectures are advantageous since they significantly reduce transmitter cost, part count, and power consumption as compared to traditional IF-based double upconversion systems. The MAX2022 integrates internal baluns, an LO buffer, a phase splitter, two LO driver amplifiers, two matched double-balanced passive mixers, and a wideband quadrature combiner. Precision matching between the in-phase and quadrature channels, and highly linear mixers achieves excellent dynamic range, ACLR, 1dB compression point, and LO and sideband suppression, making it ideal for four-carrier WCDMA/UMTS operation.
the LO input converts the single-ended LO signal to a differential signal at the LO buffer input. In addition, the internal balun matches the buffer's input impedance to 50 over the entire band of operation. The output of the LO buffer goes through a phase splitter, which generates a second LO signal that is shifted by 90 with respect to the original. The 0 and 90 LO signals drive the I and Q mixers, respectively.
LO Driver
Following the phase splitter, the 0 and 90 LO signals are each amplified by a two-stage amplifier to drive the I and Q mixers. The amplifier boosts the level of the LO signals to compensate for any changes in LO drive levels. The two-stage LO amplifier allows a wide input power range for the LO drive. While a nominal LO power of 0dBm is specified, the MAX2022 can tolerate LO level swings from -3dBm to +3dBm.

The MAX2022 modulator is composed of a pair of matched double-balanced passive mixers and a balun. The I and Q differential baseband inputs accept signals from DC to beyond 100MHz with differential amplitudes

up to 2VP-P differential (common-mode input equals 0V). The wide input bandwidth allows for direct interface with the baseband DACs. No active buffer circuitry between the baseband DAC and the MAX2022 is required. The I and Q signals directly modulate the 0 and 90 LO signals and are upconverted to the RF frequency. The outputs of the I and Q mixers are combined through a balun to a singled-ended RF output. above 3.5MHz. For GSM, connecting a 1nF capacitor from COMP to ground is recommended for filtering out noise and frequency offsets above 600kHz.
Baseband I/Q Input Drive
The MAX2022 I and Q baseband inputs should be driven differentially for best performance. The baseband inputs have a 50 differential input impedance. The optimum source impedance for the I and Q inputs is 100 differential. This source impedance will achieve the optimal signal transfer to the I and Q inputs, and the optimum output RF impedance match. The MAX2022 can accept input power levels of up to +12dBm on the I and Q inputs. Operation with complex waveforms, such as CDMA or WCDMA carriers, utilize input power levels that are far lower. This lower power operation is made necessary by the high peak-to-average ratios of these complex waveforms. The peak signals must be kept below the compression level of the MAX2022. The input common-mode voltage should be confined to the -2V to +1.5V DC range. The MAX2022 is designed to interface directly with Maxim high-speed DACs. This generates an ideal total transmitter lineup, with minimal ancillary circuit elements. Such DACs include the MAX5875 series of dual DACs, and the MAX5895 dual interpolating DAC. These DACs have ground-referenced differential current outputs. Typical termination of each DAC output into a 50 load
Applications Information
LO Input Drive
The LO input of the MAX2022 requires a single-ended drive at a 1500MHz to 2500MHz frequency. It is internally matched to 50. An integrated balun converts the singled-ended input signal to a differential signal at the LO buffer differential input. An external DC-blocking capacitor is the only external part required at this interface. The LO input power should be within the -3dBm to +3dBm range.
COMP Pin
The COMP pin is used to provide additional lowpass filtering to the bias circuit noise. An external capacitor can be used from the COMP pin to ground to reduce the close-in noise of the modulator. For UMTS, connecting a 22pF capacitor from the COMP pin to ground is recommended to filter out noise and frequency offsets

resistor to ground, and a 10mA nominal DC output current results in a 0.5V common-mode DC level into the modulator I/Q inputs. The nominal signal level provided by the DACs will be in the -12dBm range for a single CDMA or WCDMA carrier, reducing to -18dBm per carrier for a four-carrier application. The I/Q input bandwidth is greater than 50MHz at -0.1dB response. The direct connection of the DAC to the MAX2022 insures the maximum signal fidelity, with no performance-limiting baseband amplifiers required. The DAC output can be passed through a lowpass filter to remove the image frequencies from the DAC's output response. The MAX5895 dual interpolating DAC can be operated at interpolation rates up to x8. This has the benefit of moving the DAC image frequencies to a very high, remote frequency, easing the design of the baseband filters. The DAC's output noise floor and interpolation filter stopband attenuation are sufficiently good to insure that the 3GPP noise floor requirement is met for large frequency offsets, 60MHz for example, with no filtering required on the RF output of the modulator. Figure 1 illustrates the ease and efficiency of interfacing the MAX2022 with a Maxim DAC, in this case the MAX5895 dual 16-bit interpolating-modulating DAC. The MAX5895 DAC has programmable gain and differential offset controls built in. These can be used to optimize the LO leakage and sideband suppression of the MAX2022 quadrature modulator. -20dBm output power level. For higher output level signals, the noise floor will be determined by the internal LO noise level at approximately -162dBc/Hz. The I/Q input power levels and the insertion loss of the device will determine the RF output power level. The input power is the function of the delivered input I and Q voltages to the internal 50 termination. For simple sinusoidal baseband signals, a level of 89mVP-P differential on the I and the Q inputs results in an input power level of -17dBm delivered to the I and Q internal 50 terminations. This results in a -27dBm RF output power.

Generation of WCDMA Carriers
The MAX2022 quadrature modulator makes an ideal signal source for the generation of multiple WCDMA carriers. The combination of high OIP3 and exceptionally low output noise floor gives an unprecedented output dynamic range. The output dynamic range allows the generation of four WCDMA carriers in the UMTS band with a noise floor sufficiently low to meet the 3GPP specification requirements with no additional RF filtering. This promotes an extremely simple and efficient transmitter lineup. Figure 2 illustrates a complete transmitter lineup for a multicarrier WCDMA transmitter in the UMTS band. The MAX5895 dual interpolating-modulating DAC is operated as a baseband signal generator. For generation of four carriers of WCDMA modulation, and digital predistortion, an input data rate of 61.44 or 122.88Mbps can be used. The DAC can then be programmed to operate in x8 or x4 interpolation mode, resulting in a 491.52Msps output sample rate. The DAC will generate four carriers of WCDMA modulation
RF Output
The MAX2022 utilizes an internal passive mixer architecture. This enables a very low noise floor of -173.2dBm/Hz for low-level signals, below about

with an ACLR typically greater than 77dB under these conditions. The output power will be approximately -18dBm per carrier, with a noise floor typically less than -144dBc/Hz. The MAX5895 DAC has built-in gain and offset fine adjustments. These are programmable by a 3-wire serial logic interface. The gain adjustment can be used to adjust the relative gains of the I and Q DAC outputs. This feature can be used to improve the native sideband suppression of the MAX2022 quadrature modulator. The gain adjustment resolution of 0.01dB allows sideband nulling down to approximately -60dB. The offset adjustment can similarly be used to adjust the offset DC output of each I and Q DAC. These offsets can then be used to improve the native LO leakage of the MAX2022. The DAC resolution of 4 LSBs will yield nulled LO leakage of typically less than -50dBc relative to four-carrier output levels. The DAC outputs must be filtered by baseband filters to remove the image frequency signal components. The baseband signals for four-carrier operation cover DC to 10MHz. The image frequency appears at 481MHz to 491MHz. This very large frequency spread allows the use of very low-complexity lowpass filters, with excellent in-band gain and phase performance. The low DAC noise floor allows for the use of a very wideband filter, since the filter is not necessary to meet the 3GPP noise floor specification. The MAX2022 quadrature modulator then upconverts the baseband signals to the RF output frequency. The output power of the MAX2022 will be approximately -28dBm per carrier. The noise floor will be less than -169dBm/Hz, with an ACLR typically greater than 65dBc. This performance meets the 3GPP specification requirements with substantial margins. The noise floor performance will be maintained for large offset frequencies, eliminating the need for subsequent RF filtering in the transmitter lineup. The RF output from the MAX2022 is then amplified by a combination of a low-noise amplifier followed by a MAX2057 RF-VGA. This VGA can be used for lineup compensation for gain variance of transmitter and power amplifier elements. No significant degradation of the signal or noise levels will be incurred by this additional amplification. The MAX2057 will deliver an output
MAX2022
power of -6dBm per carrier, 0dBm total at an ACLR of 65dB and noise floor of -142dBc/Hz.
Layout Considerations
A properly designed PC board is an essential part of any RF/microwave circuit. Keep RF signal lines as short as possible to reduce losses, radiation, and inductance. For the best performance, route the ground pin traces directly to the exposed pad under the package. The PC board exposed paddle MUST be connected to the ground plane of the PC board. It is suggested that multiple vias be used to connect this pad to the lowerlevel ground planes. This method provides a good RF/thermal conduction path for the device. Solder the exposed pad on the bottom of the device package to the PC board. The MAX2022 evaluation kit can be used as a reference for board layout. Gerber files are available upon request at www.maxim-ic.com.
Power-Supply Bypassing
Proper voltage-supply bypassing is essential for highfrequency circuit stability. Bypass all V CC pins with 22pF and 0.1F capacitors placed as close to the pins as possible. The smallest capacitor should be placed closest to the device. To achieve optimum performance, use good voltagesupply layout techniques. The MAX2022 has several RF processing stages that use the various VCC pins, and while they have on-chip decoupling, off-chip interaction between them may degrade gain, linearity, carrier suppression, and output power-control range. Excessive coupling between stages may degrade stability.
Exposed Pad RF/Thermal Considerations
The EP of the MAX2022's 36-pin thin QFN-EP package provides a low thermal-resistance path to the die. It is important that the PC board on which the IC is mounted be designed to conduct heat from this contact. In addition, the EP provides a low-inductance RF ground path for the device. The exposed paddle (EP) MUST be soldered to a ground plane on the PC board either directly or through an array of plated via holes. An array of 9 vias, in a 3 x 3 array, is suggested. Soldering the pad to ground is critical for efficient heat transfer. Use a solid ground plane wherever possible.
