MAX2360/MAX2362/MAX2364
The MAX2360 dual-band, triple-mode complete transmitter for cellular phones represents the most integrated and architecturally advanced solution to date for this application. The device takes a differential I/Q baseband input and mixes it up to IF through a quadrature modulator and IF variable-gain amplifier (VGA). The signal is then routed to an external bandpass filter and upconverted to RF through an SSB mixer and RF VGA. The signal is further amplified with an on-board PA driver. Dual IF synthesizers, dual RF synthesizers, a local oscillator (LO) buffer, and a 3-wire programmable bus complete the basic functional blocks of this IC. The MAX2362 supports singleband, single-mode (PCS) operation. The MAX2364 supports single-band cellular dual-mode operation. The MAX2360 enables architectural flexibility because its two IF voltage-controlled oscillators (VCOs), two IF ports, two RF LO input ports, and three PA driver output ports allow the use of a single receive IF frequency and split-band PCS filters for optimum out-of-band noise performance. The PA drivers allow up to three RF SAW filters to be eliminated. Select a mode of operation by loading data on the SPITM/QSPITM/MICROWIRETM-compatible 3-wire serial bus. Charge-pump current, sideband rejection, IF/RF gain balancing, standby, and shutdown are also controlled with the serial interface. The MAX2360/MAX2362/MAX2364 come in a 48-pin TQFP-EP package and are specified for the extended (-40C to +85C) temperature range.

Transmitter RF Output for PCS Band (1700MHz to 2000MHz). This opencollector output requires a shunt inductor to the supply voltage. The pull-up inductor may be part of the output matching network and may be connected directly to the battery. Open-Collector Output Indicating Lock Status of the IF and/or the RF PLLs. Requires a pull-up resistor. Control using configuration register bit LD_MODEO, LD_MODE1. Power Supply Digital Input. A logic low on IDLE shuts down everything except the RF PLL and associated registers. A small RC lowpass filter may be used to prevent digital noise. Supply Pin for the Upconverter Stage. VCC must be bypassed to system ground as close to the pin as possible. The ground vias for the bypass capacitor should not be shared by any other branch. Digital Input. A logic low on TXGATE shuts down everything except the RF PLL, IF PLL, IF VCO, and serial bus and registers. This mode is used for gated transmission. Differential Inputs to the RF Upconverter. These pins are internally biased to 1.5V. The input impedance for these ports is nominally 400 differential. The IF filter should be AC-coupled to these ports. Keep the differential lines as short as possible to minimize stray pick-up and shunt capacitance. Differential Inputs to the RF Upconverter. These pins are internally biased to 1.5V. The input impedance for these ports is nominally 400 differential. The IF filter should be AC-coupled to these ports. Keep the differential lines as short as possible to minimize stray pick-up and shunt capacitance. Bias Resistor Pin. RBIAS is internally biased to a bandgap voltage of 1.18V. An external resistor or current source must be connected to this pin to set the bias current for the upconverters and PA driver stages. The nominal resistor value is 16k. This value can be altered to optimize the linearity of the driver stage. Input Pins from the 3-Wire Serial Bus (SPI/QSPI/MICROWIRE compatible). An RC filter on each of these pins may be used to reduce noise.

Complete Dual-Band Quadrature Transmitters
Detailed Description
The MAX2360 complete quadrature transmitter accepts differential I/Q baseband inputs with external commonmode bias. A modulator upconverts this to IF frequency in the 120MHz to 300MHz range. A gain control voltage pin (VGC) controls the gain of both the IF and RF VGAs simultaneously to achieve best noise and linearity performance. The IF signal is brought off-chip for filtering, then fed to a single sideband upconverter followed by the RF VGA and PA driver. The RF upconverter requires an external VCO for operation. The IF PLL, RF PLL, and operating mode can be programmed by an SPI/QSPI/ MICROWIRE-compatible 3-wire interface. The following sections describe each block in the MAX2360 Functional Diagram.
IFLO Output Buffer
IFLO provides a buffered LO output when BUF_EN is 1. The IFLO output frequency is equal to the VCO frequency when BUF_DIV is 0, and half the VCO frequency when BUF_DIV is 1. The output power is -6dBm. This output is intended for applications where the receive IF is the same frequency as the transmit IF.
MAX2360/MAX2362/MAX2364
IF/RF PLL
The IF/RF PLL uses a charge-pump output to drive a loop filter. The loop filter will typically be a passive second-order lead lag filter. Outside the filter's bandwidth, phase noise will be determined by the tank components. The two components that contribute most significantly to phase noise are the inductor and varactor. Use high-Q inductors and varactors to maximize equivalent parallel resistance. The IF_TURBO_CHARGE and the RF_TURBO_CHARGE bits in the CONFIG register can be set to 1 to enable turbo mode. Turbo mode provides maximum charge-pump current during frequency acquisition. Turbo mode is disabled after the second transition from phase lead to phase lag or from phase lag to phase lead. Turbo mode is also disabled after frequency acquisition is achieved. When turbo mode is disabled, charge-pump current will return to the programmed levels as set by ICP and RCP bits in the CONFIG register (Table 4).
I/Q Modulator
Differential in-phase (I) and quadrature-phase (Q) input pins are designed to be DC-coupled and biased with the baseband output from a digital-to-analog converter (DAC). I and Q inputs need a DC bias of VCC/2 and a current-drive capability of 6A. Common-mode voltage will work within a +1.35V to (V CC - 1.25V) range. Typically, I and Q will be driven differentially with a 200mVRMS baseband signal. Optionally, I and Q may be programmed for 100mVRMS operation with the IQ_LEVEL bit in the configuration register. The IF VCO output is fed into a divide-by-two/quadrature generator block to derive quadrature components to drive the IQ modulator. The output of the modulator is fed into the VGA.
IF VGA
The IF VGA allows varying an IF output level that is controlled by the VGC. The voltage range on VGC of 0.5V to 2.6V. provide a gain-control range of 85dB. There are two differential IF output ports from the VGA. IFOUTL+/IFOUTL- are optimized for low IF operation (120MHz to 235MHz) for IFOUTH+/IFOUTH- support high IF operation (120MHz to 300MHz). IFOUTL ports support direct VCO FM modulation. The differential IF output port has an output impedance of 600 when pulled up to VCC through a choke.
IF VCOs
There are two VCOs to support high IF and low IF applications. The VCOs oscillate at twice the desired IF frequency. Oscillation frequency is determined by external tank components (see Applications Information). Typical phase-noise performance for the tank is as shown in Table 1. The high-band and low-band VCOs can be selected independently of the IF port being used.
Single Sideband Mixer
The RF transmit mixer uses a single sideband architecture to eliminate an off-chip RF filter. The single sideband mixer has IF input stages that correspond to IF output ports of the VGA. The mixer is followed by the RF VGA. The RF VGA is controlled by the same VGC pin as the IF VGA to provide optimum linearity and noise performance. The total power control range is >100dB.

OFFSET (kHz) 1 12.5 30 120 900 PHASE NOISE (dBc) -80 -105 -111 -121 -128
PA Driver
The MAX2360 includes three power-amplifier (PA) drivers. Each is optimized for the desired operating frequency. RFL is optimized for cellular-band operation.
______________________________________________________________________________________
11
Complete Dual-Band Quadrature Transmitters MAX2360/MAX2362/MAX2364
RFH0 and RFH1 are optimized for split-band PCS operation. The PA drivers have open-collector outputs and require pull-up inductors. The pull-up inductors can act as the shunt element in a shunt series match. The configuration register (CONFIG) sets the configuration for the RF/IF PLL and the baseband I/Q input levels. See Table 4 for a description of each bit. The test register is not needed for normal use. Power Management Bias control is distributed among several functional sections and can be controlled to accommodate many different power-down modes as shown in Table 5. The shutdown control bit is of particular interest since it differs from the SHDN pin. When the shutdown control bit is active (SHDN_BIT = 0), the serial interface is left active so that the part can be turned on with the serial bus while all other functions remain shut off. In contrast, when the SHDN pin is low it shuts down everything. In either case, PLL programming and register information is lost. To retain the register information, use standby mode (STBY = 0). Signal Flow Control Table 6 shows an example of key registers for triplemode operation, assuming half-band PCS and IF frequencies of 130MHz/165MHz.
Programmable Registers
The MAX2360/MAX2362/MAX2364 include seven programmable registers consisting of four divide registers, a configuration register, an operational control register, and a test register. Each register consists of 24 bits. The 4 least significant bits (LSBs) are the register's address. The 20 most significant bits (MSBs) are used for register data. All registers contain some "don't care" bits. These can be either a "0" or a "1" and will not affect operation (Figure 1). Data is shifted in MSB first, followed by the 4-bit address. When CS is low, the clock is active and data is shifted with the rising edge of the clock. When CS transitions to high, the shift register is latched into the register selected by the contents of the address bits. Power-up defaults for the seven registers are shown in Table 2. The dividers and control registers are programmed from the SPI/ QSPI/MICROWIRE-compatible serial port. The RFM register sets the main frequency divide ratio for the RF PLL. The RFR register sets the reference frequency divide ratio. The RF VCO frequency can be determined by the following: RF VCO frequency = fREF * (RFM / RFR) IFM and IFR registers are similar: IF VCO frequency = fREF * (IFM / IFR) where fREF is the external reference frequency for the MAX2360/MAX2362/MAX2364. The operational control register (OPCTRL) controls the state of the MAX2360/MAX2362/MAX2364. See Table 3 for the function of each bit.
Applications Information
The MAX2360 is designed for use in dual-band, triplemode systems. It is recommended for triple-mode handsets (Figure 2). The MAX2362 is designed for use in CDMA PCS handset or WLL single-mode 2.4GHz ISM systems (Figure 3). The MAX2364 is designed for use in dual-mode cellular systems (Figure 4).
3-Wire Interface
Figure 5 shows the 3-wire interface timing diagram. The 3-wire bus is SPI/QSPI/MICROWIRE compatible.

Electromagnetic Compliance Considerations
Two major concepts should be employed to produce a noise-free and EMC-compliant transmitter: minimize circular current-loop area to reduce H-field radiation and minimize voltage drops to reduce E-field radiation. To minimize circular current-loop area, bypass as close to the part as possible and use the distributed capacitance of a ground plane. To minimize voltage drops, make VCC traces short and wide, and make RF traces short. The "don't care" bits in the registers should be "0" in order to minimize electromagnetic radiation due to unnecessary bit banging. RC filtering can also be used to slow the clock edges on the 3-wire interface, reducing high-frequency spectral content. RC filtering also
provides for transient protection against IEC802 testing by shunting high frequencies to ground, while the series resistance attenuates the transients for error-free operation. The same applies to the override pins (SHDN, TXGATE, IDLE). High-frequency bypass capacitors are required close to the pins with a dedicated via to ground. The 48-pin TQFP-EP package provides minimal inductance ground by using an exposed paddle under the part. Provide at least five low-inductance vias under the paddle to ground, to minimize ground inductance. Use a solid ground plane wherever possible. Any cutout in the ground plane may act as slot radiator and reduce its shield effectiveness. Keep the RF LO traces as short as possible to reduce LO radiation and susceptibility to interference.

IF Tank Design
The low-band tank (TANKL+, TANKL-) and high-band tank (TANKH+, TANKH-) are fully differential. The external tank components are shown in Figure 6. The frequency of oscillation is determined by the following equation: 1 fOSC = 2 (CINT + CCENT + CVAR + CP CVAR = CD x CC 2 (CD + CC )

CC
CINT = Internal capacitance of TANK port CD = Capacitance of varactor CVAR = Equivalent variable tuning capacitance CPAR = Parasitic capacitance due to PCB pads and traces CCENT = External capacitor for centering oscillation frequency CC = External coupling capacitor to the varactor Internal to the IC, the charge pump will have a leakage of less than 10nA. This is equivalent to a 300M shunt resistor. The charge-pump output must see an extremely high DC resistance of greater than 300M. This will minimize charge-pump spurs at the comparison frequency. Make sure there is no solder flux under the varactor or loop filter.

Power-Supply Layout
To minimize coupling between different sections of the IC, the ideal power-supply layout is a star configuration, which has a large decoupling capacitor at a central VCC node. The VCC traces branch out from this node, each going to a separate VCC node in the MAX2360/ MAX2362/MAX2364 circuit. At the end of each trace is a bypass capacitor with impedance to ground less than 1 at the frequency of interest. This arrangement provides local decoupling at each VCC pin. Use at least one via per bypass capacitor for a low-inductance ground connection.
Layout Issues
The MAX2360/MAX2362/MAX2364 EV kit can be used as a starting point for layout. For best performance, take into consideration power-supply issues as well as the RF, LO, and IF layout.
Matching Network Layout
The layout of a matching network can be very sensitive to parasitic circuit elements. To minimize parasitic inductance, keep all traces short and place components as close to the IC as possible. To minimize parasitic capacitance, a cutout in the ground plane (and

any other planes) below the matching network components can be used. On the high-impedance ports (e.g., IF inputs and outputs), keep traces short to minimize shunt capacitance.
Tank Layout
Keep the traces coming out of the tank short to reduce series inductance and shunt capacitance. Keep the inductor pads and coupling capacitor pads small to minimize stray shunt capacitance.
