INTEGRATED CIRCUITS SA3604 PCS-band low voltage front-end Preliminary specification IC17 Data Handbook 1999 Dec 14 Philips Semiconductors Preliminary specification PCS-band low voltage front-end SA3604 DESCRIPTION PIN CONFIGURATION The SA3604 is an integrated Low-Noise Amplifier (LNA) and mixer designed in a 30 GHz fT advanced BICMOS process, Qubic3, for high-performance, low power PCS-band communication systems. The LNA has a 1.9 dB noise figure at 1960 MHz with 17.5 dB gain and an IIP3 intercept of –4 dBm. The single-ended input, double balanced mixer has a 9.5 dB noise figure with 8 dB gain and IIP3 of +6.0 dBm at 1960 MHz. FEATURES • Integrated LNA output matching • Excellent gain stability versus temperature and supply voltage • LNA, mixer and LO buffer power down capability LO IN 1 16 VCC MIXER VCC LO Buffer 2 15 MIXER IF OUT– LO OUT 3 14 MIXER IF OUT+ GND 4 13 GND VCC LNA 5 12 MIXER RF IN GND 6 11 GND LNA RF IN 7 10 LNA RF OUT GND 8 9 LNA GAIN Sel SR02104 APPLICATIONS • IS-136 Standard systems • Wireless radios Figure 1.
