W-CDMA/W-TDD/TD-SCDMA Zero-IF Receivers
General Description
Features
♦ Fully Monolithic Direct-Conversion Receivers
The MAX2390–MAX2393/MAX2396/MAX2400/MAX2401
(referred to as the “MAX2390 family”) fully integrated
direct-conversion receiver ICs are designed for W-CDMA
and TD-SCDMA applications.
♦ Eliminate External IF SAW + IF AGC + I/Q Demod
♦ Meet all 3GPP Receiver’s Standard Requirements
with at Least 3dB Margin on Eb/No
The MAX2390 family of receiver ICs have over 90dB of
dynamic gain control, and typical noise figure of 2.7dB
referred to LNA input. Each receiver consists of an ultra-
low-current low-noise amplifier (LNA) with on-chip output
matching and a two-step gain control. The zero-IF
demodulator has a differential circuit topology for mini-
mum LO leakage to receiver’s input. The channel selec-
tivity is done completely in the baseband section of the
receiver with an on-chip lowpass filter. The AGC section
has over 50dB of gain-control range. LO quadrature
generation is done on-chip through a divide-by-2
prescaler. The DC offset cancellation in the I/Q baseband
channels is done fully on-chip using a DC servo loop. To
quickly correct for large DC offset transients in minimal
time, very fast settling time is obtained by optimization of
the DC-offset-cancellation circuit’s time constant.
♦ Operate from a +2.7V to +3.3V Single Supply
♦ Over 90dB of RF+ Baseband Gain-Control Range
♦ Channel Selectivity Over 40dB
♦ Receiver Current Consumption ≈ 32mA
♦ On-Chip DC Offset Cancellation
♦ Compatible with Various CMOS Logic Levels

The MAX2390 family includes a 3-wire serial bus for con-
figuring the different receiver modes. They also include a
SHDN pin for full device shutdown. The receivers are
fabricated using an advanced high-frequency SiGe
BiCMOS process. The ICs operate from a single +2.7V to
+3.3V supply and are housed in a small 28-pin leadless
QFN-EP and thin QFN-EP packages (5mm x 5mm).
