Description of Operation (Refer to the Electrical Characteristics Measurement Circuit.)
1) Oscillator circuit
The oscillator circuit is formed with two Colpitts oscillators, and oscillation is provided at the differential
input via an LC resonance circuit including a varicap diode. This is oscillated only by attaching an LC
resonance circuit externally because feedback capacitance, etc. are built in for oscillation.
2) Mixer circuit
This is a double-balance mixer having small leak of local oscillation signal. The RF signal is input to Pins
5 and 6. In normal use, the signal is input to one pin while the other pin is connected to GND via
decoupling capacitor.
3) IF amplifier circuit
The mixer output signal is amplified by the IF amplifier and output to Pin 1. The IF output is emitterfollower output and output impedance is approximately 50 Ω (480 MHz).
4) PLL oscillation signal output circuit
The output circuit is built in to drive the PLL for tuning. This is emitter-follower output and output
impedance is approximately 50 Ω.
