MAX2442 Datasheet | Maxim Integrated

Description The MAX2440/MAX2441/MAX2442 highly integrated front-end receiver ICs provide the lowest cost solution for cordless phones and ISM-band radios operating in the 900MHz band. All devices incorporate receive imagereject mixers to reduce filter cost. They operate with a +2.7V to +4.8V power supply, allowing direct connection to a 3-cell battery stack. The signal path incorporates an adjustable-gain LNA and an image-reject downconverter with 35d B image suppression. These features yield excellent bined downconverter noise figure (4d B) and high linearity with an input third-order intercept point (IP3) of up to +2d Bm. All devices include an on-chip local oscillator (LO), requiring only an external varactor-tuned LC tank for operation. The integrated divide-by-64/65 dual-modulus prescaler can also be set to a direct mode, in which it acts as an LO buffer amplifier. Three...
