MAX2660/MAX2661/MAX2663/MAX2671/MAX2673 19-1382 Rev 1 9/99 400MHz to 2.5GHz Upconverter Mixers General Description Features The MAX2660/MAX2661/MAX2663/MAX2671/MAX2673 RF Output Frequencies: 400MHz to 2.5GHz miniature, low-cost, low-noise upconverter mixers are Low Noise Figure: 9.3dB (900MHz, MAX2671) designed for low-voltage operation and are ideal for use in portable consumer equipment. Signals at the IF +2.7V to +5.5V Single Supply input port are mixed with signals at the local oscillator High Output Intercept Point (OIP3) (LO) port using a double-balanced mixer. These upconverter mixers operate with IF input frequencies 5.9dBm at 4.8mA (MAX2660) between 40MHz and 500MHz, and upconvert to output 7.1dBm at 8.3mA (MAX2661) frequencies as high as 2.5GHz. 0.7dBm at 3.0mA (MAX2663) 9.6dBm at 11.8mA (MAX2671) These devices offer a wide range of supply currents and 7.6dBm at 20.5mA (MAX2673) output intercept levels to optimize system performance. Supply current is essentially constant over the specified 1A Shutdown Mode supply voltage range. Additionally, when the devices are Ultra-Small Surface-Mount Packaging in a typical configuration with V = 0, a shutdown SHDN mode reduces the supply current to less than 1A. Pin Configurations The MAX2660/MAX2661/MAX2663/MAX2671 are offered in the space-saving 6-pin SOT23 package. For applications requiring balanced IF ports, choose the TOP VIEW MAX2673 in the 8-pin MAX package.
