SiGe High-Linearity, 815MHz to 995MHz
Downconversion Mixer with LO Buffer/Switch
The MAX9986 high-linearity downconversion mixer
provides 10dB of conversion gain and +23.6dBm of
IIP3, with a typical 9.3dB noise figure. The integrated
baluns and matching circuitry allow for 50Ω single-
ended interfaces to the RF and the two LO ports. A sin-
gle-pole, double-throw (SPDT) switch provides 50ns
switching time between the two LO inputs with 49dB of
LO-to-LO isolation. Furthermore, the integrated LO
buffer provides a high drive level to the mixer core,
reducing the LO drive required at the MAX9986’s
inputs to a -3dBm to +3dBm range. The IF port incor-
porates a differential output, which is ideal for provid-
ing enhanced IIP2 performance.
Specifications are guaranteed over broad frequency
ranges to allow for use in cellular band GSM,
cdma2000, iDEN, and W-CDMA 2G/2.5G/3G base sta-
tions. The MAX9986 is specified to operate over a
815MHz to 995MHz RF frequency range, a 960MHz to
1180MHz LO frequency range, and a 50MHz to
250MHz IF frequency range. Operation beyond these
ranges is possible; see the Typical Operating
Characteristics for additional details.

Detailed Description
Power-Supply Connection. Bypass each V
Application Circuit.
Single-Ended 50Ω RF Input. This port is internally matched and DC shorted to GND through a balun.
Requires an external DC-blocking capacitor.
Center Tap of the Internal RF Balun. Bypass to GND with capacitors close to the IC, as shown in the
Typical Application Circuit.

Local Oscillator Select. Logic control input for selecting LO1 or LO2.
Local Oscillator Input 1. Drive LOSEL low to select LO1.
Local Oscillator Input 2. Drive LOSEL high to select LO2.
External Inductor Connection. Connect a low-ESR, 30nH inductor from LEXT to GND. This inductor
carries approximately 140mA DC current.
Differential IF Outputs. Each output requires external bias to V

IF Bias Resistor Connection for IF Amplifier. Connect a 953Ω ±1% resistor from IFBIAS to GND.
Exposed Ground Paddle. Solder the exposed paddle to the ground plane using multiple vias.
The MAX9986 RF input is internally matched to 50Ω,
requiring no external matching components. A DC-
blocking capacitor is required because the input is inter-
nally DC shorted to ground through the on-chip balun.
The MAX9986 is ideally suited for high-side LO injec-
tion applications with a 960MHz to 1180MHz LO fre-
quency range. For a device with a 570MHz to 850MHz
LO frequency range, refer to the MAX9984 data sheet.
As an added feature, the MAX9986 includes an internal
LO SPDT switch that can be used for frequency-hop-
ping applications. The switch selects one of the two
single-ended LO ports, allowing the external oscillator
to settle on a particular frequency before it is switched
in. LO switching time is typically less than 50ns, which
is more than adequate for virtually all GSM applica-
tions. If frequency hopping is not employed, set the
switch to either of the LO inputs. The switch is con-
trolled by a digital input (LOSEL): logic-high selects
LO2, logic-low selects LO1. To avoid damage to the
part, voltage must be applied to V
logic is applied to LOSEL. LO1 and LO2 inputs are
internally matched to 50Ω, requiring only a 82pF DC-
blocking capacitor.
