commensurate with the desired level of performance. For low
voltage applications, the ADL5354 is capable of operation at
voltages as low as 3.3 V with substantially reduced current. For
low voltage operation, an additional logic pin is provided to
power down (~300 μA) the circuit when desired.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADL5354 uses a highly linear, doubly balanced, passive mixer
core along with integrated RF and local oscillator (LO) balancing
circuitry to allow single-ended operation. The ADL5354 incor-
porates the RF baluns, allowing for optimal performance over a
2200 MHz to 2700 MHz RF input frequency range. The balanced
passive mixer arrangement provides good LO-to-RF leakage,
typically better than −37 dBm, and excellent intermodulation
performance. The balanced mixer core also provides extremely
high input linearity, allowing the device to be used in demanding
cellular applications where in-band blocking signals may other-
wise result in the degradation of dynamic performance. A high
linearity IF buffer amplifier follows the passive mixer core to yield
a typical power conversion gain of 8 dB and can be used with a
wide range of output impedances.
The ADL5354 is fabricated using a BiCMOS high performance
IC process. The device is available in a 6 mm × 6 mm, 36-lead
LFCSP and operates over a −40°C to +85°C temperature range.
An evaluation board is also available.

The ADL5354 provides two switched LO paths that can be used
in time division duplex (TDD) applications where it is desirable
to ping-pong between two local oscillators. LO current can be
externally set using a resistor to minimize dc current
