LT5558 600MHz to 1100MHz High Linearity Direct Quadrature Modulator DESCRIPTION FEATURES Direct Conversion from Baseband to RF High OIP3: + 22.4dBm at 900MHz Low Output Noise Floor at 20MHz Offset: No RF: -158dBm/Hz POUT = 4dBm: -152.7dBm/Hz Low Carrier Leakage: -43.7dBm at 900MHz High Image Rejection: -49dBc at 900MHz 3 Channel CDMA2000 ACPR: -70.4dBc at 900MHz Integrated LO Buffer and LO Quadrature Phase Generator 50 AC-Coupled Single-ended LO and RF Ports High Impedance Interface to Baseband Inputs with 2.1V Common Mode Voltage 16-Lead QFN 4mm x 4mm Package The LT(R)5558 is a direct I/Q modulator designed for high performance wireless applications, including wireless infrastructure. It allows direct modulation of an RF signal using differential baseband I and Q signals. It supports GSM, EDGE, CDMA, CDMA2000, and other systems. It may also be configured as an image reject upconverting mixer, by applying 90 phase-shifted signals to the I and Q inputs. The high impedance I/Q baseband inputs consist of voltage-to-current converters that in turn drive doublebalanced mixers. The outputs of these mixers are summed and applied to an on-chip RF transformer, which converts the differential mixer signals to a 50 single-ended output. The balanced I and Q baseband input ports are intended for DC coupling from a source with a common-mode voltage level of about 2.1V. The LO path consists of an LO buffer with single-ended input, and precision quadrature generators which produce the LO drive for the mixers. The supply voltage range is 4.5V to 5.25V.

When the Enable pin voltage is higher than 1V, the IC is turned on. When the Enable voltage 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 VCC 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, Pin 17, are connected to each other internally. Pins 2 and 4 are connected to each other internally 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. 5558fa 7 LT5558 PIN FUNCTIONS 0.1F capacitors for decoupling to ground on each of these pins. LO (Pin 3): LO Input. The LO input is an AC-coupled singleended input with approximately 50 input impedance at RF frequencies. Externally applied DC voltage should be within the range -0.5V to (VCC + 0.5V) in order to avoid turning on ESD protection diodes. RF (Pin 11): RF Output. The RF output is an AC-coupled single-ended output with approximately 50 output impedance at RF frequencies. Externally applied DC voltage should be within the range -0.5V to (VCC + 0.5V) in order to avoid turning on ESD protection diodes. BBPQ, BBMQ (Pins 7, 5): Baseband Inputs for the Q-channel. The differential input impedance is 3k. These pins are internally biased at about 2.1V. Applied common mode voltage must stay below 2.5V. BBPI, BBMI (Pins 14, 16): Baseband Inputs for the I-channel. The differential input impedance is 3k. These pins are internally biased at about 2.1V. Applied common mode voltage must stay below 2.5V. VCC (Pins 8, 13): Power Supply. Pins 8 and 13 are connected to each other internally.

External I and Q baseband signals are applied to the differential baseband input pins, BBPI, BBMI, and BBPQ, BBMQ. These voltage signals are converted to currents and translated to RF frequency by means of double-balanced up-converting mixers. The mixer outputs are combined in an RF output balun, which also transforms the output impedance to 50. The center frequency of the resulting RF signal is equal to the LO signal frequency. The LO input drives a phase shifter which splits the LO signal into in-phase and quadrature LO signals. These LO signals are then applied to on-chip buffers which drive the upconversion mixers. Both the LO input and RF output are single-ended, 50-matched and AC coupled. Baseband Interface The baseband inputs (BBPI, BBMI), (BBPQ, BBMQ) present a differential input impedance of about 3k. At each of the four baseband inputs, a low-pass filter using 200 and 1.8pF to ground is incorporated (see Figure 1), which limits the baseband -1dB bandwidth to approximately 250MHz. The common-mode voltage is about 2.1V and is slightly temperature dependent. At TA = -40C, the common-mode voltage is about 2.28V and at TA = 85C it is about 2.01V. 5558fa 8 LT5558 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION C RF VCC = 5V VCC LT5558 4.5V TO 5.25V C5 C1 14 FROM Q LOPI BB SOURCE VCC RF EN BBPI BBPQ C3 7 2.1VDC LT5558 C2 2, 4, 6, 9, 10, 12, 15, 17 200 VREF = 0.5V 1.3k 2.1VDC 1 C4 BB SOURCE 16 5 BBMI BBMQ 2.1VDC 2.1VDC LO GND LOMI BBPI RF OUT 8, 13 11 BALUN 3 5558 F03 1.8P Figure 3.

Simplifed Circuit Schematic of the LT5558 (Only I-Half is Drawn) If the I/Q signals are DC-coupled to the LT5558, it is important that the applied common-mode voltage level of the I and Q inputs is about 2.1V in order to properly bias the LT5558. Some I/Q generators allow setting the common-mode voltage independently. In this case, the common-mode voltage of those generators must be set to 1.05V to match the LT5558 internal bias where the internal DC voltage of the signal generators is set to 2.1V due to the source-load voltage division (See Figure 2). The LT5558 baseband inputs should be driven differentially, otherwise, the even-order distortion products will degrade the overall linearity severely. Typically, a DAC will be the signal source for the LT5558. A pulse-shaping filter should be placed between the DAC outputs and the LT5558's baseband inputs. An AC-coupled baseband interface with the LT5558 is drawn in Figure 3. Capacitors C1 to C4 will introduce a GENERATOR 50 1.05VCC GENERATOR 50 2.1VDC low-frequency high-pass corner together with the LT5558's differential input impedance of 3k. Usually, capacitors C1 to C4 will be chosen equal and in such a way that the -3dB corner frequency f-3dB = 1/( * RIN,DIFF * C1) is much lower than the lowest baseband frequency. DC coupling between the DAC outputs and the LT5558 baseband inputs is recommended, because AC coupling will introduce a low-frequency time constant that may affect the signal integrity. Active level shifters may be required to adapt the common mode level of the DAC outputs to the common mode input voltage of the LT5558. Such circuits may, however, suffer degraded LO leakage performance as small DC offsets and variations over temperature accumulate. A better scheme is shown in Figure 16, where feedback is used to track out these variations. LO Section The internal LO input amplifier performs single-ended to differential conversion of the LO input signal. Figure 4 shows the equivalent circuit schematic of the LO input. The internal, differential LO signal is split into in-phase and quadrature (90 phase shifted) signals that drive LO buffer sections. These buffers drive the double balanced I and Q mixers.

Equivalent Circuit Schematic of the LO Input 5558fa 9 LT5558 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION the LO input and the internal in-phase LO and quadrature LO signals is fixed, and is independent of start-up conditions. The phase shifters are designed to deliver accurate quadrature signals for an LO frequency near 900MHz. For frequencies significantly below 750MHz or above 1.1GHz, the quadrature accuracy will diminish, causing the image rejection to degrade. The LO pin input impedance is about 50 and the recommended LO input power window is -2dBm to + 2dBm. For PLO < -2dBm, the gain, OIP2, OIP3, dynamic-range (in dBc/Hz) and image rejection will degrade, especially at TA = 85C. Harmonics present on the LO signal can degrade the image rejection, because they introduce a small excess phase shift in the internal phase splitter. For the second (at 1.8GHz) and third harmonics (at 2.7GHz) at -20dBc level, the introduced signal at the image frequency is about -61dBc or lower, corresponding to an excess phase shift much less than 1 degree. For the second and third harmonics at -10dBc, still the introduced signal at the image frequency is about -51dBc. Higher harmonics than the third will have less impact. The LO return loss typically will be better than 10dB over the 750MHz to 1GHz range. Table 1 shows the LO port input impedance vs. frequency. The return loss S11 on the LO port can be improved at lower frequencies by adding a shunt capacitor. Table 1.

To improve S22 for lower frequencies, a series capacitor can be added to the RF output. At higher frequencies, a shunt inductor can improve the S22. Figure 5 shows the equivalent circuit schematic of the RF output. Table 5. RF Port Output Impedance vs Frequency for EN = Low FREQUENCY (MHz) Note that an ESD diode is connected internally from the RF output to the ground. For strong output RF signal levels (higher than 3dBm), this ESD diode can degrade the linearity performance if an external 50 termination impedance is connected directly to ground. To prevent this, a coupling capacitor can be inserted in the RF output line. This is strongly recommended during 1dB compression measurements. Enable Interface Figure 6 shows a simplified schematic of the EN pin interface. The voltage necessary to turn on the LT5558 is 1V. To disable (shut down) the chip, the enable voltage must be below 0.5V. If the EN pin is not connected, the chip is disabled. This EN = Low condition is guaranteed by the 75k on-chip pull-down resistor. It is important that the voltage at the EN pin does not exceed VCC by more than 0.5V. If this should occur, the full-chip supply current could be sourced through the EN pin ESD protection diodes, which are not designed for this purpose. Damage to the chip may result.

A good ground connection is required for the LT5558's Exposed Pad. If this is not done properly, the RF performance will degrade. Additionally, the Exposed Pad provides heat sinking for the part and minimizes the possibility of the chip overheating. R1 (optional) limits the EN pin current in the event that the EN pin is pulled high while the VCC inputs are low.

Evaluation Circuit Schematic Figure 9. Bottom Side of Evaluation Board If the output power is high, the ACPR will be limited by the linearity performance of the part. If the output power is low, the ACPR will be limited by the noise performance of the part. In the middle, an optimum ACPR is obtained. Because of the LT5558's very high dynamic-range, the test equipment can limit the accuracy of the ACPR measurement. Consult Design Note 375 or the factory for advice on ACPR measurement if needed. The ACPR performance is sensitive to the amplitude mismatch of the BBIP and BBIM (or BBQP and BBQM) inputs. This is because a difference in AC current amplitude will give rise to a difference in amplitude between the even-order harmonic products generated in the internal V-I converter. As a result, they will not cancel out entirely. Therefore, it is important to keep the amplitudes at the BBIP and BBIM (or BBQP and BBQM) inputs as equal as possible. Figure 8. Component Side of Evaluation Board Application Measurements The LT5558 is recommended for base-station applications using various modulation formats. Figure 10 shows a typical application. Figure 11 shows the ACPR performance for CDMA2000 using one and three channel modulation. Figures 12 and 13 illustrate the 1- and 3-channel CDMA2000 measurement. To calculate ACPR, a correction is made for the spectrum analyzer noise floor (Application Note 99). 12 LO feedthrough and image rejection performance may be improved by means of a calibration procedure. LO feedthrough is minimized by adjusting the differential DC offset at the I and the Q baseband inputs. Image rejection can be improved by adjusting the gain and the phase difference between the I and the Q baseband inputs. The LO feedthrough and Image Rejection can also change as a function of the baseband drive level, as depicted in Figure 14. 5558fa LT5558 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION 5V BASEBAND GENERATOR VCC 8, 13 LT5558 14 I-DAC 16 V-I I-CHANNEL 11 0 1 EN 100nF x2 RF = 600MHz TO 1100MHz PA 90 7 Q-DAC 5 Q-CHANNEL BALUN V-I 2, 4, 6, 9, 10, 12, 15, 17 3 VCO/SYNTHESIZER 5558 F10 Figure 10. 600MHz to 1.1GHz Direct Conversion Transmitter Application -120 3-CH ACPR 3-CH ALTCPR -130 -60 1-CH ACPR -140 -70 1-CH NOISE -80 1-CH ALTCPR -150 3-CH NOISE -90 -30 -20 -15 -10 -5 0 -25 RF OUTPUT POWER PER CARRIER (dBm) -30 NOISE FLOOR AT 30MHz OFFSET (dBm/Hz) -50 ACPR, ALTCPR (dBc) -110 DOWNLINK TEST MODEL 64 DPCH -160 DOWNLINK TEST MODEL 64 DPCH -40 POWER IN 30kHz BW (dBm) -40 -50 -60 -70 -80 -90 UNCORRECTED SPECTRUM -100 -110 -120 SPECTRUM ANALYSER NOISE FLOOR CORRECTED SPECTRUM -130 894 896 900 902 898 RF FREQUENCY (MHz) 5558 TA01b Figure 11.

The LTC1565 is a seventh-order, 650kHz, continuous-time, linear-phase, lowpass filter. The optimum output common-mode level of the LTC1565 is about 2.5V and the optimum input common-mode level of the LT5558 is around 2.1V and is temperature dependent. To adapt the common-mode level of the LTC1565 to the LT5558, a level shift network consisting of R1 to R6 and R11 to R16 is used. The output common-mode level of the LTC1565 can be adjusted by overriding the internally generated voltage on pin 3 of the LTC1565. 5558fa 13 LT5558 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION 10 -40C PRF, LOFT (dBm), IR (dBc) 0 25C 85C PRF -10 -20 LOFT -30 85C -40 U4's stability while driving the large supply decoupling capacitors C3 and C4. This corrected common-mode voltage is applied to the common-mode input pins of U2 and U3 (pins 3). This results in a positive feedback loop for the common mode voltage with a loop gain of about -10dB. This technique ensures that the current compliance on the baseband input pins of the LT5558 is not exceeded under supply voltage or temperature extremes, and internal diode voltage shifts or combinations of these. The core current of the LT5558 is thus maintained at its designed level for optimum performance. The recommended common-mode voltage applied to the inputs of the LTC1565 is about 2V. Resistor tolerances are recommended 1% accuracy or better. The total current consumption is about 160mA and the noise floor at 20MHz offset is -147dBm/Hz with 3.7dBm RF output power.
