CV110-3A: The application circuit can be broken up into four main
functions as denoted in the colored dotted areas above: RF/IF
diplexing (purple), amplifier matching (green), filtering (red), and dc
biasing (blue). There are various placeholders for chip components in
the circuit schematic so that a common PCB can be used for all WJ
single-branch converters. Additional placeholders for other optional
functions such as filtering are also included.
RF / IF Amplifier Matching:
matching element for optimal gain and input return loss performance.
The IF amplifier requires matching elements to optimize the
performance of the amplifier to the desired IF center frequency.
Since IF bandwidths are typically on the order of 5 to 10%, a simple
two element matching network, in the form of either a high-pass or
low-pass filter structure, is sufficient to match the MMIC IF
amplifier over these narrow bandwidths. Proper component values for
other IF center frequencies can be found in the IF Amplifier Matching
Table or by e-mailing to
RF Bandpass Filtering:
reject the image frequencies and achieve the best noise figure

performance with the downconverter.
implemented with a SAW filter on the application circuit, allows for
the suppression of noise from the image frequency. It is permissible
to not use a filter and use a 2 dB pad with R6, R7, and R16 instead
with slightly degraded noise figure performance.
evaluation boards will have the 2 dB pad in place.
External Diplexer:
RF signal impinges on the switching elements of the mixer; the
interaction with these switches produces a signal at the IF frequency.
The two signals (RF and IF) are directed to the appropriate ports by
the external diplexer. Pin 5 contains the IF signal and allows the
signal to be transferred to pin 25 for the convenience of PCB layouts.
DC biasing:
amplifiers in the converter. R1 sets the operating current for the last
stage of the LO amplifier and is chosen to optimize the mixer LO
drive level. Proper RF chokes and bypass capacitors are chosen for
proper amplifier biasing at the intended frequency of operation. The
“+5 V” dc bias should be supplied directly from a voltage regulator.
