GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADMV4801 is a silicon germanium (Si Ge), 24 GHz to 29.5 GHz, mm W, 5G beamformer. This RF IC is highly integrated and contains 16 independent transmit and receive channels. In transmit mode, the RFC input signal is split using 1:16 power splitters and passes through the 16 independent transmit channels. In receive mode, input signals pass through the 16 independent channels and are bined with 16:1 biners to the RFC pin. In transmit mode, each channel includes a vector modulator (VM) to control phase and two digital variable gain amplifiers (DVGAs) to control amplitude. In receive mode, each channel includes a VM to control phase and a DVGA to control amplitude. The VM provides a full 360° phase adjustment range in either transmit or receive mode, providing 6 bits of resolution for 5.625° phase steps. The total DVGA dynamic range adjustment range in transmit mode is 34 d B, providing 6 bits of resolution, resulting in 0.5 d B amplitude steps, and 5 bits of resolution, resulting in 1 d B amplitude steps. In receive model the total dynamic range is 17 d B providing, 6 bits of resolution, resulting in 0.5 d B amplitude steps. The DVGAs provide a flat phase...
