Analog Front-End
MAX9712
General Description
Features
♦ Dual 10-Bit, 22Msps Rx ADC and Dual 10-Bit,
The MAX19712 is an ultra-low-power, highly integrated
mixed-signal analog front-end (AFE) ideal for wideband
communication applications operating in full-duplex
(FD) mode. Optimized for high dynamic performance
and ultra-low power, the device integrates a dual 10-bit,
22Msps receive (Rx) ADC; dual 10-bit, 22Msps 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 typical operating power in
FD mode is 50.4mW at a 22MHz clock frequency.
22Msps Tx DAC
♦ Ultra-Low Power
50.4mW at fCLK = 22MHz, FD Mode
39.9mW at fCLK = 22MHz, Slow Rx Mode
33.9mW at fCLK = 22MHz, Slow Tx Mode
Low-Current Standby and Shutdown Modes
♦ Programmable Tx DAC Common-Mode DC Level
and I/Q Offset Trim
♦ Excellent Dynamic Performance
SNR = 54.8dB at fIN = 5.5MHz (Rx ADC)
The Rx ADCs feature 54.7dB SINAD and 75.6dBc SFDR
at 5.5MHz input frequency with a 22MHz clock frequen-
cy. The analog I/Q input amplifiers are fully differential
SFDR = 72.9dBc at fOUT = 2.2MHz (Tx DAC)
♦ Three 12-Bit, 1μs Aux-DACs
♦ 10-Bit, 333ksps Aux-ADC with 4:1 Input Mux and
and accept 1.024V
full-scale signals. Typical I/Q
P-P
Data Averaging
channel matching is 0.01ꢀ phase and 0.01dB gain.
♦ Excellent Gain/Phase Match
0.01° Phase, 0.01dB Gain (Rx ADC) at
fIN = 5.5MHz
The Tx DACs feature 72.9dBc SFDR at f = 2.2MHz
OUT
and f
= 22MHz. The analog I-Q full-scale output volt-
CLK
age range is 400mV differential. The output DC com-
mon-mode voltage is from 0.89V to 1.36V. The I/Q
channel offset is adjustable to optimize radio lineup side-
band/carrier suppression. Typical I-Q channel matching
is 0.01dB gain and 0.1ꢀ phase.
♦ Multiplexed Parallel Digital I/O
♦ Serial-Interface Control
♦ Versatile Power-Control Circuits
Shutdown, Standby, Idle, Tx/Rx Disable
♦ Miniature 56-Pin Thin QFN Package
Two independent 10-bit parallel, high-speed digital
buses used by the Rx ADC and Tx DAC allow full-
duplex operation for frequency-division duplex applica-
tions. The Rx ADC and Tx DAC can be disabled
independently to optimize power management. A 3-wire
serial interface controls power-management modes, the
aux-DAC channels, and the aux-ADC channels.

Pin Configuration
TOP VIEW
The MAX19712 operates on a single 2.7V to 3.3V analog
supply and 1.8V to 3.3V digital I/O supply. The
MAX19712 is specified for the extended (-40ꢀC to
+85ꢀC) temperature range and is available in a 56-pin,
thin QFN package. The Selector Guide at the end of the
data sheet lists other pin-compatible versions in this AFE
family. For time-division duplex (TDD) applications, refer
to the MAX19705–MAX19708 AFE family of products.
