See Application Circuit. 9 CAP AC ground. An external capacitor of 0.01 μF to ground is required for low frequency bypassing. See application circuit for further details. 10 MIXIF This pin is DC coupled. For applications not requiring operation to DC, this port should be DC blocked externally using a series capacitor whose value has been chosen to pass the necessary IF frequency range. For operation to DC, this pin must not source/sink more than 18 mA of current or part non-function and possible part failure will result. 12 IFOUT This pin is AC coupled and matched to 50 Ohms. 13 VddIF Power supply for IF amplifier. Choke inductor and bypass capacitor are required. See application circuit. 16 MIXLO This pin is DC coupled and matched to 50 Ohms. An off chip DC blocking capacitor is required. 17 GND Backside of package has exposed metal ground paddle that must also be connected to ground. 18 BIAS Power supply and RF Output of the LO amplifier. Three external bypass capacitors are recommended for optimum performance, as illustrated in the application circuit. 21 LO This pin is DC coupled and matched to 50 Ohms. An off chip DC blocking capacitor is required. See application circuit.
