GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADMV1010 is a compact, gallium arsenide (GaAs) design,
monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC), I/Q down-
converter in a RoHS compliant package optimized for point to
point microwave radio designs that operates in the 12.6 GHz to
15.4 GHz frequency range. The ADMV1010 is optimized to work
as a low noise, upper sideband (low-side local oscillator (LO)),
image reject downconverter.
The ADMV1010 provides 15 dB of conversion gain with 25 dB
of image rejection. The ADMV1010 uses a radio frequency
(RF), low noise amplifier (LNA) followed by an in-phase/
quadrature (I/Q) double balanced mixer, where a driver
amplifier drives the LO. IF1 and IF2 mixer outputs are
provided, and an external 90° hybrid is needed to select the
required sideband. The I/Q mixer topology reduces the need for
filtering the unwanted sideband. The ADMV1010 is a much
smaller alternative to hybrid style SSB downconverter
assemblies, and it eliminates the need for wire bonding by
allowing the use of surface-mount manufacturing assemblies.
The ADMV1010 downconverter comes in a compact, thermally
enhanced, 4.9 mm × 4.9 mm, 32-terminal LCC package. The
ADMV1010 operates over the −40°C to +85°C temperature range.
