PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The AD8349 is a silicon, monolithic, RF quadrature modulator
that is designed for use from 700 MHz to 2700 MHz. Its
excellent phase accuracy and amplitude balance enable high
performance direct RF modulation for communication systems.
The differential LO input signal is buffered, and then split into
an in-phase (I) signal and a quadrature-phase (Q) signal using a
polyphase phase splitter. These two LO signals are further
buffered and then mixed with the corresponding I channel and
Q channel baseband signals in two Gilbert cell mixers. The
mixers’ outputs are then summed together in the output
amplifier. The output amplifier is designed to drive 50 Ω loads.
The RF output can be switched on and off within 50 ns by
applying a control pulse to the ENOP pin.
The AD8349 can be used as a direct-to-RF modulator in digital
communication systems such as GSM, CDMA, and WCDMA
base stations, and QPSK or QAM broadband wireless access
transmitters. Its high dynamic range and high modulation
accuracy also make it a perfect IF modulator in local multipoint
distribution systems (LMDS) using complex modulation
formats.
The AD8349 is fabricated using Analog Devices’ advanced
complementary silicon bipolar process, and is available in a 16-
lead, exposed-paddle TSSOP package. Its performance is
specified over a –40°C to +85°C temperature range.
