MAX5863
The MAX5863 ultra-low-power, highly integrated analog
front end is ideal for portable communication equipment
such as handsets, PDAs, WLAN, and 3G wireless termi-
nals. The MAX5863 integrates dual 8-bit receive ADCs
and dual 10-bit transmit DACs while providing the high-
est dynamic performance at ultra-low power. The ADCs’
analog I-Q input amplifiers are fully differential and
accept 1V
P-P
full-scale signals. Typical I-Q channel
phase matching is
±0.03°
and amplitude matching is
±0.03dB.
The ADCs feature 48.5dB SINAD and 69dBc
spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR) at f
IN
= 1.875MHz
and f
CLK
= 7.5Msps. The DACs’ analog I-Q outputs are
fully differential with
±400mV
full-scale output, and 1.4V
common-mode level. Typical I-Q channel phase match is
±0.15°
and gain match is
±0.05dB.
The DACs also fea-
ture dual 10-bit resolution with 73dBc SFDR, and 61dB
SNR at f
OUT
= 620kHz and f
CLK
= 7.5MHz.
The ADCs and DACs operate simultaneously or indepen-
dently for frequency-division duplex (FDD) and time-divi-
sion duplex (TDD) modes. A 3-wire serial interface
controls power-down and transceiver modes of opera-
tion. The typical operating power is 22.8mW at f
CLK
=
7.5Msps with the ADCs and DACs operating simultane-
ously in transceiver mode. The MAX5863 features an
internal 1.024V voltage reference that is stable over the
entire operating power-supply range and temperature
range. The MAX5863 operates on a +2.7V to +3.3V ana-
log power supply and a +1.8V to +3.3V digital I/O power
supply for logic compatibility. The quiescent current is
3.5mA in idle mode and 1µA in shutdown mode. The
MAX5863 is specified for the extended (-40°C to +85°C)
temperature range and is available in a 48-pin thin QFN
package.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
