The LT®5558 is a direct I/Q modulator designed for high
performance wireless applications, including wireless
infrastructure. It allows direct modulation of an RF signal
using differential baseband I and Q signals. It supports
GSM, EDGE, CDMA, CDMA2000, and other systems. It
may also be configured as an image reject upconverting
mixer, by applying 90° phase-shifted signals to the I and
Q inputs. The high impedance I/Q baseband inputs consist
of voltage-to-current converters that in turn drive doublebalanced mixers. The outputs of these mixers are summed
and applied to an on-chip RF transformer, which converts
the differential mixer signals to a 50Ω single-ended output.
The balanced I and Q baseband input ports are intended
for DC coupling from a source with a common-mode
voltage level of about 2.1V. The LO path consists of an LO
buffer with single-ended input, and precision quadrature
generators which produce the LO drive for the mixers.
The supply voltage range is 4.5V to 5.25V.

PIN FUNCTIONS
EN (Pin 1): Enable Input. When the Enable pin voltage is
higher than 1V, the IC is turned on. When the Enable voltage is less than 0.5V or if the pin is disconnected, the IC
is turned off. The voltage on the Enable pin should never
exceed VCC by more than 0.5V, in order to avoid possible
damage to the chip.
GND (Pins 2, 4, 6, 9, 10, 12, 15, 17): Ground. Pins 6, 9,

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
The LT5558 consists of I and Q input differential voltageto-current converters, I and Q up-conversion mixers, an
RF output signal combiner/balun, an LO quadrature phase
generator and LO buffers.
External I and Q baseband signals are applied to the differential baseband input pins, BBPI, BBMI, and BBPQ,
BBMQ. These voltage signals are converted to currents and
translated to RF frequency by means of double-balanced
up-converting mixers. The mixer outputs are combined
in an RF output balun, which also transforms the output
impedance to 50Ω. The center frequency of the resulting
RF signal is equal to the LO signal frequency. The LO input drives a phase shifter which splits the LO signal into
in-phase and quadrature LO signals. These LO signals
are then applied to on-chip buffers which drive the upconversion mixers. Both the LO input and RF output are
single-ended, 50Ω-matched and AC coupled.
Baseband Interface
The baseband inputs (BBPI, BBMI), (BBPQ, BBMQ) present a differential input impedance of about 3kΩ. At each
of the four baseband inputs, a low-pass filter using 200Ω
and 1.8pF to ground is incorporated (see Figure 1), which
limits the baseband –1dB bandwidth to approximately
250MHz. The common-mode voltage is about 2.1V and
is slightly temperature dependent. At TA = -40°C, the
common-mode voltage is about 2.28V and at TA = 85°C
it is about 2.01V.

Figure 1. Simplifed Circuit Schematic of the LT5558
(Only I-Half is Drawn)
If the I/Q signals are DC-coupled to the LT5558, it is
important that the applied common-mode voltage level
of the I and Q inputs is about 2.1V in order to properly
bias the LT5558. Some I/Q generators allow setting the
common-mode voltage independently. In this case, the
common-mode voltage of those generators must be set to
1.05V to match the LT5558 internal bias where the internal
DC voltage of the signal generators is set to 2.1V due to
the source-load voltage division (See Figure 2).
The LT5558 baseband inputs should be driven differentially, otherwise, the even-order distortion products will
degrade the overall linearity severely. Typically, a DAC
will be the signal source for the LT5558. A pulse-shaping
filter should be placed between the DAC outputs and the
LT5558’s baseband inputs.
An AC-coupled baseband interface with the LT5558 is
drawn in Figure 3. Capacitors C1 to C4 will introduce a

low-frequency high-pass corner together with the LT5558’s
differential input impedance of 3kΩ. Usually, capacitors
C1 to C4 will be chosen equal and in such a way that the
–3dB corner frequency f–3dB = 1/(π • RIN,DIFF • C1) is much
lower than the lowest baseband frequency.
DC coupling between the DAC outputs and the LT5558
baseband inputs is recommended, because AC coupling
will introduce a low-frequency time constant that may affect
the signal integrity. Active level shifters may be required to
adapt the common mode level of the DAC outputs to the
common mode input voltage of the LT5558. Such circuits
may, however, suffer degraded LO leakage performance
as small DC offsets and variations over temperature
accumulate. A better scheme is shown in Figure 16, where
feedback is used to track out these variations.
LO Section
The internal LO input amplifier performs single-ended to
differential conversion of the LO input signal. Figure 4
shows the equivalent circuit schematic of the LO input.
The internal, differential LO signal is split into in-phase
and quadrature (90° phase shifted) signals that drive
LO buffer sections. These buffers drive the double balanced I and Q mixers. The phase relationship between

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
the LO input and the internal in-phase LO and quadrature LO signals is fixed, and is independent of start-up
conditions. The phase shifters are designed to deliver
accurate quadrature signals for an LO frequency near
900MHz. For frequencies significantly below 750MHz
or above 1.1GHz, the quadrature accuracy will diminish,
causing the image rejection to degrade. The LO pin input
impedance is about 50Ω and the recommended LO input
power window is –2dBm to + 2dBm. For PLO < –2dBm, the
gain, OIP2, OIP3, dynamic-range (in dBc/Hz) and image
rejection will degrade, especially at TA = 85°C.
Harmonics present on the LO signal can degrade the image
rejection, because they introduce a small excess phase shift
in the internal phase splitter. For the second (at 1.8GHz)
and third harmonics (at 2.7GHz) at –20dBc level, the introduced signal at the image frequency is about –61dBc
or lower, corresponding to an excess phase shift much
less than 1 degree. For the second and third harmonics at
–10dBc, still the introduced signal at the image frequency
is about –51dBc. Higher harmonics than the third will have
less impact. The LO return loss typically will be better than
10dB over the 750MHz to 1GHz range. Table 1 shows the
LO port input impedance vs. frequency. The return loss
S11 on the LO port can be improved at lower frequencies
by adding a shunt capacitor.

For EN = Low the S22 is given in Table 5.
To improve S22 for lower frequencies, a series capacitor
can be added to the RF output. At higher frequencies, a
shunt inductor can improve the S22. Figure 5 shows the
equivalent circuit schematic of the RF output.
Table 5. RF Port Output Impedance vs Frequency for EN = Low
FREQUENCY
(MHz)
Note that an ESD diode is connected internally from the
RF output to the ground. For strong output RF signal
levels (higher than 3dBm), this ESD diode can degrade
the linearity performance if an external 50Ω termination
impedance is connected directly to ground. To prevent this,
a coupling capacitor can be inserted in the RF output line.
This is strongly recommended during 1dB compression
measurements.
Enable Interface
Figure 6 shows a simplified schematic of the EN pin interface. The voltage necessary to turn on the LT5558 is 1V.
To disable (shut down) the chip, the enable voltage must
be below 0.5V. If the EN pin is not connected, the chip is
disabled. This EN = Low condition is guaranteed by the
75kΩ on-chip pull-down resistor.
It is important that the voltage at the EN pin does not
exceed VCC by more than 0.5V. If this should occur, the
full-chip supply current could be sourced through the EN
pin ESD protection diodes, which are not designed for this
purpose. Damage to the chip may result.

overheating. R1 (optional) limits the EN pin current in the

If the output power is high, the ACPR will be limited by the
linearity performance of the part. If the output power is
low, the ACPR will be limited by the noise performance of
the part. In the middle, an optimum ACPR is obtained.
Because of the LT5558’s very high dynamic-range, the test
equipment can limit the accuracy of the ACPR measurement. Consult Design Note 375 or the factory for advice
on ACPR measurement if needed.
The ACPR performance is sensitive to the amplitude mismatch of the BBIP and BBIM (or BBQP and BBQM) inputs.
This is because a difference in AC current amplitude will
give rise to a difference in amplitude between the even-order
harmonic products generated in the internal V-I converter.
As a result, they will not cancel out entirely. Therefore, it
is important to keep the amplitudes at the BBIP and BBIM
(or BBQP and BBQM) inputs as equal as possible.
Figure 8. Component Side of Evaluation Board
Application Measurements
The LT5558 is recommended for base-station applications
using various modulation formats. Figure 10 shows a
typical application.
Figure 11 shows the ACPR performance for CDMA2000
using one and three channel modulation. Figures 12 and 13
illustrate the 1- and 3-channel CDMA2000 measurement.
To calculate ACPR, a correction is made for the spectrum
analyzer noise floor (Application Note 99).

LO feedthrough and image rejection performance may
be improved by means of a calibration procedure. LO
feedthrough is minimized by adjusting the differential DC
offset at the I and the Q baseband inputs. Image rejection can be improved by adjusting the gain and the phase
difference between the I and the Q baseband inputs. The
LO feedthrough and Image Rejection can also change
as a function of the baseband drive level, as depicted in
Figure 14.

Example: RFID Application
In Figure 15 the interface between the LTC1565 (U2, U3)
and the LT5558 is designed for RFID applications. The
LTC1565 is a seventh-order, 650kHz, continuous-time,
linear-phase, lowpass filter. The optimum output common-mode level of the LTC1565 is about 2.5V and the
optimum input common-mode level of the LT5558 is
around 2.1V and is temperature dependent. To adapt the
common-mode level of the LTC1565 to the LT5558, a level
shift network consisting of R1 to R6 and R11 to R16 is
used. The output common-mode level of the LTC1565 can
be adjusted by overriding the internally generated voltage
on pin 3 of the LTC1565.

U4’s stability while driving the large supply decoupling
capacitors C3 and C4. This corrected common-mode
voltage is applied to the common-mode input pins of U2
and U3 (pins 3). This results in a positive feedback loop
for the common mode voltage with a loop gain of about
-10dB. This technique ensures that the current compliance
on the baseband input pins of the LT5558 is not exceeded
under supply voltage or temperature extremes, and internal
diode voltage shifts or combinations of these. The core
current of the LT5558 is thus maintained at its designed
level for optimum performance. The recommended common-mode voltage applied to the inputs of the LTC1565
is about 2V. Resistor tolerances are recommended 1%
accuracy or better. The total current consumption is about
160mA and the noise floor at 20MHz offset is –147dBm/Hz
with 3.7dBm RF output power. For a 2VPP, DIFF baseband
input swing, the output power at fLO + fBB is 1.6dBm
and the third harmonic at fLO – 3fBB is –48.6dBm. For a
2.6VPP, DIFF input, the output power at fLO + fBB is 3.8dBm
and the third harmonic at fLO – 3fBB is –40.5dBm.

The common-mode voltage on the LT5558 is sampled
using resistors R7, R8, R17 and R18 and shifted up to
about 2.5V using resistor R9. Op amp U4 compensates
for the gain loss in the resistor networks and provides a
low-ohmic drive to steer the common-mode input pins
of U2 and U3. Resistors R20 and R21 improve op amp
