PIN FUNCTIONS
EN (Pin 1): Enable Input. When the Enable pin voltage is
higher than 1V, the IC is turned on. When the Enable volt-
age is less than 0.5V or if the pin is disconnected, the IC
is turned off. The voltage on the Enable pin should never
exceed V
CC
by more than 0.5V, in order to avoid possible
damage to the chip.
GND (Pins 2, 4, 6, 9, 10, 12, 15, 17): Ground. Pins 6, 9,
15 and the Exposed Pad 17 are connected to each other
internally. Pins 2 and 4 are connected to each other inter-
nally and function as the ground return for the LO signal.
Pins 10 and 12 are connected to each other internally and
function as the ground return for the on-chip RF balun. For
best RF performance, Pins 2, 4, 6, 9, 10, 12, 15 and the
Exposed Pad, Pin 17, should be connected to the printed
circuit board ground plane.
LO (Pin 3): LO Input. The LO input is an AC-coupled single-
ended input with approximately 50Ω input impedance at
RF frequencies. Externally applied DC voltage should be
within the range –0.5V to (V
CC
+ 0.5V) in order to avoid
turning on ESD protection diodes.
BBPQ, BBMQ (Pins 7, 5): Baseband inputs for the Q-chan-
nel with about 90kΩ differential input impedance. These
pins should be externally biased at about 0.5V. Applied
common mode voltage must stay below 0.6V.
V
CC
(Pins 8, 13): Power Supply. Pins 8 and 13 are connected
to each other internally. 0.1µF capacitors are recommended
for decoupling to ground on each of these pins.
RF (Pin 11): RF Output. The RF output is an AC-coupled
single-ended output with approximately 50Ω output im-
pedance at RF frequencies. Externally applied DC voltage
should be within the range –0.5V to (V
CC
+ 0.5V) in order
to avoid turning on ESD protection diodes.
BBPI, BBMI (Pins 14, 16): Baseband inputs for the I-chan-
nel with about 90kΩ differential input impedance. These
pins should be externally biased at about 0.5V. Applied
common mode voltage must stay below 0.6V.
Exposed Pad (Pin 17): Ground. The Exposed Pad must
be soldered to the PCB.
