Product Description
The CMX994G is one of a family of direct conversion receiver ICs with PowerTrade, the ability to dynamically select power vs. performance modes to optimise operating trade-offs. It includes a broadband LNA with gain control followed by a high dynamic range, very high IIP2, I/Q demodulator. The receiver baseband section includes amplifiers and precise, configurable bandwidth, baseband filter stages. LO generation is provided by an integer-N PLL and a VCO negative resistance amplifier; an external LO may also be used. LO dividers are provided for flexible multi-band operation. The device operates from a single 3.3V supply over a temperature range of 40°C to +85°C and is available in a small 40-pin VQFN (Q4) package.
The CMX994G allows signals as low in frequency as 30MHz to be down-converted, along with an enhanced perfromance mode for improved intermodulation perfromance in the receive mixers, as well as enabling a reduction in power consumption, by allowing LO phase-correction to be turned off. A further reduction in power consumption is possible by disabling either the I or Q channel in a channel-mirroring mode.
