LMX4268
Radio Transceiver for DECT
1.0 General description
2.0 Features
■
■
■
■
■
■
■
The LMX4268 integrates a complete transmitter, consisting
of a phase locked loop, VCO and PA driver. The receiver ■
contains LNA, quadrature downconverter, polyphase filter, ■
automatic gain control and demodulator.
■
The LMX4268 operates from a single 2.5V supply. The ■
LMX4268 is manufactured in National’s 0.25µm CMOS
■
technology, and is packaged in a 44 pin LLP package.
■
The LMX4268 is a radio transceiver integrated circuit optimized for the Digital Cordless Telecommunications (DCT)
system. The transceiver, when combined with a power
amplifier and a Tx/Rx switch, implements a complete
2.4GHz ISM band digital radio transceiver compliant with
the FCC rules part 15. The LMX4268 interfaces directly to
National Semiconductor’s SC144XX DCT family of baseband processors.

2.Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. Operating
Ratings indicate conditions for which the device is intended to be functional, but do not guarantee specific performance limits. For guaranteed specifications and test conditions, see the Electrical Characteristics. The guaranteed specifications apply only to the test conditions listed.
3.MSL 2 (Moisture Sensitivity Level) is valid when the standard reflow process (235°C) is used. MSL 2
means 1 year shelf life after opening dry-pack. MSL 2(1 year shelf life) is also valid when the leadfree
reflow process (260°C) is used. Storage conditions are max. 30°C / 60% rel. humidity.
4.ESD STATEMENT
This device is a high performance RF integrated circuit and is ESD sensitive. Handling and assembly
of this device should be performed at ESD free workstations.
