10-Bit, 45Msps, Ultra-Low-Power
Analog Front-End
General Description
Features
The MAX19707 is an ultra-low-power, mixed-signal ana-
log front-end (AFE) designed for power-sensitive com-
munication equipment. Optimized for high dynamic
performance at ultra-low power, the device integrates a
dual, 10-bit, 45Msps receive (Rx) ADC; dual, 10-bit,
45Msps transmit (Tx) DAC; three fast-settling 12-bit
aux-DAC channels for ancillary RF front-end control;
and a 10-bit, 333ksps housekeeping aux-ADC. The typ-
ical operating power in Tx-Rx FAST mode is 84.6mW at
a 45MHz clock frequency.
♦ Dual, 10-Bit, 45Msps Rx ADC and Dual, 10-Bit,
45Msps Tx DAC
♦ Ultra-Low Power
84.6mW at fCLK = 45MHz, Fast Mode
77.1mW at fCLK = 45MHz, Slow Mode
Low-Current Standby and Shutdown Modes
♦ Programmable Tx DAC Common-Mode DC Level
and I/Q Offset Trim
♦ Excellent Dynamic Performance
SNR = 54.2dB at fIN = 5.5MHz (Rx ADC)
SFDR = 73.2dBc at fOUT = 2.2MHz (Tx DAC)
The Rx ADCs feature 54.2dB SNR and 71.2dBc SFDR
at fIN = 5.5MHz and f
= 45MHz. The analog I/Q
CLK
input amplifiers are fully differential and accept
♦ Three 12-Bit, 1µs Aux-DACs
1.024V full-scale signals. Typical I/Q channel match-
P-P
♦ 10-Bit, 333ksps Aux-ADC with 4:1 Input Mux and
ing is 0.03ꢀ phase and 0.01dB gain.
Data Averaging
The Tx DACs feature 73.2dBc SFDR at f
= 2.2MHz
OUT
♦ Excellent Gain/Phase Match
0.03ꢀ Phase, 0.01dB Gain (Rx ADC) at
fIN = 5.5MHz
and f
= 45MHz. The analog I/Q full-scale output volt-
CLK
age is 400mV differential. The Tx DAC common-mode
DC level is programmable from 0.71V to 1.05V. The I/Q
channel offset is programmable to optimize radio lineup
sideband/carrier suppresion. The typical I/Q channel
matching is 0.01dB gain and 0.07ꢀ phase.
♦ Multiplexed Parallel Digital I/O
♦ Serial-Interface Control
♦ Versatile Power-Control Circuits
The Rx ADC and Tx DAC share a single, 10-bit parallel,
high-speed digital bus allowing half-duplex operation
for time-division duplex (TDD) applications. A 3-wire
serial interface controls power-management modes, the
aux-DAC channels, and the aux-ADC channels.

♦ Miniature 48-Pin Thin QFN Package
(7mm x 7mm x 0.8mm)
Pin Configuration
The MAX19707 operates on a single 2.7V to 3.3V ana-
log supply and 1.8V to 3.3V digital I/O supply. The
MAX19707 is specified for the extended (-40ꢀC to
+85ꢀC) temperature range and is available in a 48-pin,
thin QFN package. The Selector Guide at the end of the
data sheet lists other pin-compatible versions in this
AFE family.
