General Description
The MAX2683/MAX2684 are super-high-performance, low-cost downconverter mixers intended for wireless local loop (WLL) and digital microwave radio (DMR) applications in the 3.4GHz to 3.8GHz frequency band. The MAX2683 is optimized for downconversion to IF frequencies between 100MHz and 400MHz, and allows both high-side and low-side local oscillator (LO) injection. The MAX2684 is optimized for IF frequencies between 800MHz and 1000MHz, and allows low-side LO injection. A logic-level control enables an internal frequency doubler on both devices, allowing the external LO source to run at full or half frequency. An internal LO filter reduces LO harmonics and spurious mixing.
