MAX2742
The MAX2742 complete single-chip global positioning
system (GPS) RF front-end utilizes many innovative and
leading-edge RF CMOS design techniques. This high-
performance, state-of-the-art device consumes extreme-
ly low power and eliminates the need for costly SAW
and bulky discrete IF filters. The MAX2742 incorporates
a fully integrated low-noise amplifier (LNA) and mixer, IF
section, digital sampler, and local oscillator synthesizer.
The intended input signal for the MAX2742 is the L1
GPS signal 1.57542GHz. This device supports high-
accuracy output quantization, which delivers the best
performance obtainable for the GPS receiver. The
power consumption of the MAX2742 is as low as 32mW
at a +2.4V supply.
The MAX2742 is available in a space-saving 48-pin
TQFP package and is specified for the extended (-40°C
to +85°C) temperature range.

±1%
resistor in parallel with a 0.1µF capacitor in
series with a 71kΩ resistor to GND.
External Bias Capacitor. Connect a 0.1µF capacitor to GND.
Supply Voltage. Bypass to GND with 100pF and 100nF capacitors as close to the pin as
possible with the smaller value capacitor closer to the pin.
Ground. Connect to PC board ground plane.
LNA Input. Requires external matching network.
IF Output Select. Selects output type. Drive high for single-ended output, drive low for
differential output.
Internally Connected. Leave unconnected.
Digital Control Clock
Clock Output Enable 2. Drive high to enable limited-swing clock output.
Clock Output Enable 1. Drive high to enable full-swing clock output.
