The circuit block diagram is shown below. From a
single local-oscillator input (LO1), the phase
shifter produces two LO signals with 90° phase
separation and equal amplitude. The LO signals
are fed to the in-phase (I) and quadrature (Q)
double-balanced mixers. The resulting signals are
summed and fed into an RF mixer where the
frequency can be translated to over 2 GHz.
Outputs between the summer and RF mixer are
available for external filtering. Finally, the signal is
amplified to provide a single-ended output.

Digital satellite communications
The W3013 is a monolithic integrated circuit that
provides indirect, quadrature modulation of an RF
carrier by I & Q baseband inputs. The function
performed by the W3013 is particularly suited for
handheld digital cellular and digital cordless
telephones that operate between 800 MHz and
2.2 GHz.
The ENB/APC input with a logic low allows the
device to be put into a powerdown mode. Above
the logic low threshold, the device enters a power
control mode that provides a range of desired
output power levels.

Handling Precautions
Although protection circuitry has been designed into this device, proper precautions should be taken to avoid
exposure to electrostatic discharge (ESD) during handling and mounting. Lucent Technologies Microelectronics
Group employs a human-body model (HBM) and a charged-device model (CDM) for ESD-susceptibility testing
and protection design evaluation. ESD voltage thresholds are dependent on the circuit parameters used to define
the model. No industry-wide standard has been adopted for CDM. However, a standard HBM (resistance =
1500 Ω, capacitance = 100 pF) is widely used and, therefore, can be used for comparison purposes. The HBM
ESD threshold presented here was obtained by using these circuit parameters:

EVM (%) = 100 Ÿ [79e–6 + 89e–6 + 891e–6 + 251e–6 + 2239e–6 + 708e–6 + 282e–6 + 63e–6 +
141e–6]/0.316e
= 1.5%
This approximates worst-case digital modulation results because the sine-wave modulation estimate assumes all
spurious outputs are in phase and adds their magnitudes as scalars. In addition, this estimate includes fullamplitude measurements of spurious peaks that would appear in adjacent and alternate channels, where a
receiver would otherwise provide attenuation. The L3 third-order intermodulation peak and LSB (lower sideband)
are normally the unwanted output frequencies that dominate the EVM estimate.

Application Circuits
A typical application circuit for the W3013 is shown in Figure 4. The LC filter components, LF and CF, are chosen
to have a parallel resonance at the same frequency as LO1, according to the formula
fO =
1
2
LF(CF + 1.2e−12)
where f O is the center of the filter passband in Hz, LF is the filter inductor in Henries, and CF is the filter capacitor
in farads. Use of an inductor of 100 nH or larger in the filter will minimize the variation of output power due to
tolerance variation of the filter components.
If the transmitter frequency plan requires the use of more than one LO1 frequency, the W3013 RF output power
may be approximately equalized by designing the LC filter center frequency at
fO = f(LO1max)f(LO1min) ,
i.e., the geometric mean of the maximum and minimum LO1 frequencies.
Board and device parasitic capacitance and inductance must be accounted for in calculating LF and CF.
The matching network will vary depending on the application, but must include a series capacitor to block dc
connections to the W3013 output pin if the load is conductive. For optimum performance, the bypass capacitor,
C1, should have a series self-resonant frequency that is close to the output frequency and should be mounted
near pin 20. It is expected that the positive supply (VCC) will appear as a low impedance to ground at low
frequencies, using a voltage regulator and/or a large capacitor such as a 10 µF tantalum electrolytic.

ENB/APC Function
The ENB/APC lead is used to turn the device on and to control the output power. If the voltage on this lead is
below VILMAX, the device is in a low-current mode. Between VIHMIN and about VCC, the device draws full supply
current and is in a power-control mode. In this region, the output power will vary with the voltage on the
ENB/APC lead as shown in Figure 5.
