It consists of a mixer, IF amplifiers, I and Q demodulators, a phase-locked quadrature oscillator, and a biasing system with external power-down. The AD61009’s low noise, high intercept mixer is a doublybalanced Gilbert cell type. It has a nominal –15 dBm input referred 1 dB compression point and a –8 dBm input referred third-order intercept. The mixer section of the AD61009 also includes a local oscillator (LO) preamplifier, which lowers the required LO drive to –16 dBm.

The I and Q demodulators can also demodulate AM; when the AD61009’s quadrature VCO is phase locked to the received signal, the in-phase demodulator becomes a synchronous product detector for AM. The VCO can also be phase-locked to an external beat-frequency oscillator (BFO), and the demodulator serves as a product detector for CW or SSB reception. Finally, the AD61009 can be used to demodulate BPSK using an external Costas Loop for carrier recovery. In MGC operation, the AD61009 accepts an external gaincontrol voltage input from an external AGC detector or a DAC. Monoceiver is a registered trademark of Analog Devices, Inc.

Power-Up Response Time to PLL Stable –13– AD61009 Mixer SUPPLY CURRENT – mA 15 The UHF mixer is an improved Gilbert cell design, and can operate from low frequencies (it is internally dc-coupled) up to an RF input of 500 MHz. The dynamic range at the input of the mixer is determined, at the upper end, by the maximum input signal level of ± 56 mV between RFHI and RFLO up to which the mixer remains linear, and, at the lower end, by the noise level. It is customary to define the linearity of a mixer in terms of the 1 dB gain-compression point and third-order intercept, which for the AD61009 are –15 dBm and –8 dBm, respectively, in a 50 Ω system. 10 The mixer’s RF input port is differential, that is, pin RFLO is functionally identical to RFHI, and these nodes are internally biased; we will generally assume that RFLO is decoupled to ac ground. The RF port can be modeled as a parallel RC circuit as shown in Figure 2. 5 0 0.5 1 1.5 GAIN VOLTAGE – Volts 2 2.5 TPC 31. Power Supply Current vs. Gain Control Voltage, GREF = 1.5 V AD61009 PRODUCT OVERVIEW The AD61009 provides most of the active circuitry required to realize a complete low power, single-conversion superheterodyne receiver, or most of a double-conversion receiver, at input frequencies up to 500 MHz, and with an IF of from 400 kHz to 12 MHz. The internal I/Q demodulators, and their associated phase locked-loop, which can provide carrier recovery from the IF, support a wide variety of modulation modes, including n-PSK, n-QAM, and AM. A single positive supply voltage of 3 V is required (2.85 V minimum, 5.5 V maximum) at a typical supply current of 8.5 mA at midgain. In the following discussion, VP will be used to denote the power supply voltage, which will be assumed to be 3 V.

Mixer Port Modeled as a Parallel RC Network; an Optional Matching Network Is also Shown Figure 1 shows the main sections of the AD61009. It consists of a variable-gain UHF mixer and linear four-stage IF strip, which together provide a voltage controlled gain range of more than 90 dB; followed by dual demodulators, each comprising a multiplier followed by a two-pole, 2 MHz low-pass filter; and driven by a phase-locked loop providing the inphase and quadrature clocks. A biasing system with CMOS compatible power-down completes the AD61009. The local oscillator (LO) input is internally biased at VP/2 via a nominal 1000 Ω resistor internally connected from pin LOIP to VMID. The LO interface includes a preamplifier which minimizes the drive requirements, thus simplifying the oscillator design and reducing LO leakage from the RF port. Internally, this single-sided input is actually differential; the noninverting input is referenced to pin VMID. The LO requires a single-sided drive of ± 50 mV, or –16 dBm in a 50 Ω system.

Functional Block Diagram –14– REV. 0 AD61009 The mixer’s output passes through both a low-pass filter and a buffer, which provides an internal differential to single-ended signal conversion with a bandwidth of approximately 45 MHz. Its output at pin MXOP is in the form of a single-ended current. This approach eliminates the 6 dB voltage loss of the usual series termination by replacing it with shunt terminations at the both the input and the output of the filter. The nominal conversion gain is specified for operation into a total IF bandpass filter (BPF) load of 165 Ω, that is, a 330 Ω filter, doubly-terminated as shown in Figure 33. Note that these loads are connected to bias point VMID, which is always at the midpoint of the supply (that is, VP/2). The maximum permissible signal level at MXOP is determined by both voltage and current limitations. Using a 3 V supply and VMID at 1.5 V, the maximum swing is about ± 1.3 V. To attain a voltage swing of ± 1 V in the standard IF filter load of 165 Ω load requires a peak drive current of about ± 6 mA, which is well within the linear capability of the mixer. However, these upper limits for voltage and current should not be confused with issues related to the mixer gain, already discussed. In an operational system, the AGC voltage will determine the mixer gain, and hence the signal level at the IF input pin IFHI; it will always be less than ± 56 mV (–15 dBm into 50 Ω), which is the limit of the IF amplifier’s linear range. The conversion gain is measured between the mixer input and the input of this filter, and varies between 1.5 dB and 26.5 dB for a 165 Ω load impedance. Using filters of higher impedance, the conversion gain can always be maintained at its specified value or made even higher; for filters of lower impedance, of say ZO, the conversion gain will be lowered by 10 log10(165/ZO). Thus, the use of a 50 Ω filter will result in a conversion gain that is 5.2 dB lower. Figure 3 shows filter matching networks and Table I lists resistor values. IF Amplifier R2 MXOP 8 1nF BPF R1 VMID 10 IFHI R3 9 11 IFLO 100nF 100nF Most of the gain in the AD61009 arises in the IF amplifier strip, which comprises four stages. The first three are fully differential and each has a gain span of 25 dB for the nominal AGC voltage range. Thus, in conjunction with the mixer’s variable gain, the total gain exceeds 90 dB. The final IF stage has a fixed gain of 20 dB, and it also provides differential to single-ended conversion. The IF input is differential, at IFHI (noninverting relative to the output IFOP) and IFLO (inverting). Figure 4 shows a simplified schematic of the IF interface. The offset voltage of this stage would cause a large dc output error at high gain, so it is nulled by a low-pass feedback path from the IF output, also shown in TPC 25. Unlike the mixer output, the signal at IFOP is a lowimpedance single-sided voltage, centered at VP/2 by the dc feedback loop. It may be loaded by a resistance as low as 50 Ω, which will normally be connected to VMID. AD61009 IFHI Figure 3. Suggested IF Filter Matching Network.

Simplified Schematic of the IF Interface The IF’s small-signal bandwidth is approximately 45 MHz from IFHI and IFLO through IFOP. The peak output at IFOP is ± 560 mV at VP = 3 V and ± 400 mV at the minimum VP of 2.7 V. This allows some headroom at the demodulator inputs (pin DMIP), which accept a maximum input of ± 150 mV for IFs > 3 MHz and ± 75 mV for IFs ≤ 3 MHz (at IFs ≤ 3 MHz, the drive to the demodulators must be reduced to avoid saturating the output amplifiers with higher order mixing products that are no longer removed by the onboard low-pass filters). –15– AD61009 Since there is no band-limiting in the IF strip, the outputreferred noise can be quite high; in a typical application and at a gain of 75 dB it is about 100 mV rms, making post-IF filtering desirable. IFOP may be also used as an IF output for driving an A/D converter, external demodulator, or external AGC detector. Figure 5 shows methods of matching the optional second IF filter. VPOS AD61009 2RT RT IFOP BPF 2RT DMIP a. Biasing DMIP from Power Supply (Assumes BPF AC Coupled Internally) AD61009 Alternatively, pin GREF can be tied to an external voltage reference, VR, provided, for example, by an AD1582 (2.5 V) or AD1580 (1.21 V) voltage reference, to provide supplyindependent gain scaling of VR/75 (volts per dB). Since it uses the same reference voltage, the numerical input to this DAC provides an accurate RSSI value in digital form, no longer requiring the reference voltage to have high absolute accuracy. I/Q Demodulators RT IFOP AD61009 features temperature-compensation of the gain scaling. The gain control scaling is proportional to the reference voltage applied to the pin GREF. When this pin is tied to the midpoint of the supply (VMID), the scale is nominally 20 mV/ dB (50 dB/V) for VP = 3 V. Under these conditions, the lower 80 dB of gain range (mixer plus IF) corresponds to a control voltage of 0.4 V ≤ VG ≤ 2.0 V. The final centering of this 1.6 V range depends on the insertion losses of the IF filters used. More generally, the gain scaling using these connections is VP/150 (volts per dB), so becomes 33.3 mV/dB (30 dB/V) using a 5 V supply, with a proportional change in the AGC range, to 0.33 V ≤ VG ≤ 3 V, Table II lists gain control voltages and scale factors for power supply voltages from 3 V to 5.5 V.

Input and Output Matching of the Optional Second IF Filter Gain Scaling and RSSI The AD61009’s overall gain, expressed in decibels, is linearin-dB with respect to the AGC voltage VG at pin GAIN. The gain of all sections is maximum when VG is zero, and reduces progressively up to VG = 2.2 V (for VP = 3 V; in general, up to a limit VP – 0.8 V). The gain of all stages changes in parallel. The Both demodulators (I and Q) receive their inputs at pin DMIP. Internally, this single-sided input is actually differential; the noninverting input is referenced to pin VMID. Each demodulator comprises a full-wave synchronous detector followed by a 2 MHz, two-pole low-pass filter, producing single-sided outputs at pins IOUT and QOT. Using the I and Q demodulators for IFs above 12 MHz is precluded by the 1 MHz to 12 MHz response of the PLL used in the demodulator section. Pin DMIP requires an external bias source at VP/2; Figure 6 shows suggested methods. Outputs IOUT and QOUT are centered at VP/2 and can swing up to ± 1.23 V even at the low supply voltage of 2.85 V. The conversion gain of the I and Q demodulators is 18 dB (X8), requiring a maximum input amplitude at DMIP of ± 150 mV for IFs > 3 MHz. Table II.

For example, the IF output itself can be used by connecting DMIP to FDIN, which will then provide automatic carrier recover for synchronous AM detection and take advantage of any post-IF filtering. Pin FDIN must be biased at VP/2; Figure 9 shows suggested methods. VPOS AD61009 2RT RT IFOP BPF 2RT DMIP a. Biasing DMIP from Power Supply (Assumes BPF AC-Coupled Internally) AD61009 IFOP RT BPF In practice, the probability of a phase mismatch at power-up is high, so the worst-case linear settling period to full lock needs to be considered in making filter choices. This is typically 16.5 µs at an IF of 10.7 MHz for a ±100 mV signal at DMIP and FDIN. DMIP RT VMID The VFQO operates from 1 MHz to 12 MHz and is controlled by the voltage between VPOS and FLTR. In normal operation, a series RC network, forming the PLL loop filter, is connected from FLTR to ground. The use of an integral sample-hold system ensures that the frequency-control voltage on pin FLTR remains held during power-down, so reacquisition of the carrier typically occurs in 16.5 µs. CBYPASS Bias System b. Biasing DMIP from VMID (Assumes BPF AC-Coupled Internally) Figure 6. Suggested Methods for Biasing Pin DMIP at VP /2 For IFs < 3 MHz, the on-chip low-pass filters (2 MHz cutoff) do not attenuate the IF or feedthrough products; thus, the maximum input voltage at DMIP must be limited to ± 75 mV to allow sufficient headroom at the I and Q outputs for not only the desired baseband signal but also the unattenuated higherorder demodulation products. These products can be removed by an external low-pass filter. Phase-Locked Loop The demodulators are driven by quadrature signals that are provided by a variable frequency quadrature oscillator (VFQO), phase locked to a reference signal applied to pin FDIN. When this signal is at the IF, inphase and quadrature baseband outputs are generated at IOUT and QOUT, respectively. The quadrature accuracy of this VFQO is typically –1.2° at 10.7 MHz. The PLL uses a sequential-phase detector that comprises low power emitter-coupled logic and a charge pump (Figure 7). The AD61009 operates from a single supply, VP, usually of 3 V, at a typical supply current of 8.5 mA at midgain and T = 27°C, corresponding to a power consumption of 25 mW. Any voltage from 2.85 V to 5.5 V may be used. The bias system includes a fast-acting active-high CMOScompatible power-up switch, allowing the part to idle at 550 µA when disabled. Biasing is proportional-to-absolute-temperature (PTAT) to ensure stable gain with temperature. An independent regulator generates a voltage at the midpoint of the supply (VP/2) which appears at the VMID pin, at a low impedance. This voltage does not shut down, ensuring that the major signal interfaces (e.g., mixer-to-IF and IF-to-demodulators) remain biased at all times, thus minimizing transient disturbances at power-up and allowing the use of substantial decoupling capacitors on this node. The quiescent consumption of this regulator is included in the idling current. VPOS FDIN EXTERNAL FREQUENCY REFERENCE VF R SEQUENTIAL PHASE DETECTOR U D C ID~ 40A 50k⍀ a.

As is true of any wideband high gain component, great care is needed in PC board layout. The location of the particular grounding points must be considered with due regard to possibility of unwanted signal coupling, particularly from IFOP to RFHI or IFHI or both. 80dB 70dB (67.5dB) 60dB IF GAIN 50dB The high sensitivity of the AD61009 leads to the possibility that unwanted local EM signals may have an effect on the performance. During system development, carefully-shielded test assemblies should be used. The best solution is to use a fully-enclosed box enclosing all components, with the minimum number of needed signal connectors (RF, LO, I and Q outputs) in miniature coax form. 40dB 30dB (21.5dB) 20dB MIXER GAIN 10dB (7.5dB) (1.5dB) 0dB 0.4V 0 The I and Q output leads can include small series resistors (about 100 Ω) inside the shielded box without significant loss of performance, provided the external loading during testing is light (that is, a resistive load of more than 20 kΩ and capacitances of a few picofarads). These help to keep unwanted RF emanations out of the interior. 1.8V 1V NORMAL OPERATING RANGE 2.2V 2V Vg Figure 10.

Signal Levels for Minimum and Maximum Gain –18– REV. 0 AD61009 Using the AD61009 with a Fast PRUP Control Signal If the AD61009 is used in a system in which the PRUP signal (Pin 3) is applied with a rise time less than 35 µs, anomalous behavior occasionally occurs. The problem is intermittent, so it will not occur every time the part is powered up under these conditions. It does not occur for any other normal operating conditions when the PRUP signal has a rise time slower than 35 µs. Symptoms of operation with too fast a PRUP signal include low gain, oscillations at the I or Q outputs of the device or no valid data occurring at the output of the AD61009. The problem causes no permanent damage to the AD61009, so it will often operate normally when reset. Fortunately, there is a very simple solution to the fast PRUP problem. If the PRUP signal (Pin 3) is slowed down so that the rise time of the signal edge is greater than 35 µs, the anomalous behavior will not occur. This can be realized by a simple RC circuit connected to the PRUP pin, where R = 4.7 kΩ and C = 1.5 nF. This circuit is shown in Figure 12. FROM PRUP CONTROL SIGNAL AD61009 4.7k⍀ PRUP 1.5nF All designs incorporating the AD61009 should include this circuitry. Note that connecting the PRUP pin to the supply voltage will not eliminate the problem since the supply voltage may have a rise time faster than 35 µs. With this configuration, the 4.7 kΩ series R and 1.5 nF shunt C should be placed between the supply and the PRUP pin as shown in Figure 12. AD61009 EVALUATION BOARD The AD61009 evaluation board (Figures 13 and 14) consists of an AD61009, ground plane, I/O connectors, and a 10.7 MHz bandpass filter. The RF and LO ports are terminated in 50 Ω to provide a broadband match to external signal generators to allow a choice of RF and LO input frequencies. The IF filter is at 10.7 MHz and has 330 Ω input and output terminations; the board is laid out to allow the user to substitute other filters for other IFs. The board provides SMA connectors for the RF and LO port inputs, the demodulated I and Q outputs, the manual gain control (MGC) input, the PLL input, and the power-up input. In addition, the IF output is also available at an SMA connector; this may be connected to the PLL input for carrier recovery to realize synchronous AM and FM detection via the I and Q demodulators, respectively.
