High-Linearity, 650MHz to 1000MHz Upconversion/
Downconversion Mixer with LO Buffer/Switch
General Description
The MAX2032 high-linearity passive upconverter or
downconverter mixer is designed to provide +33dBm
IIP3, 7dB NF, and 7dB conversion loss for a 650MHz to
1000MHz RF frequency range to support a multitude of
base-station applications. With a 650MHz to 1250MHz
LO frequency range, this particular mixer is ideal for
high-side LO injection architectures. For a pin-to-pin-
compatible mixer meant for low-side LO injection, refer
to the MAX2029.
In addition to offering excellent linearity and noise per-
formance, the MAX2032 also yields a high level of com-
ponent integration. This device includes a double-
balanced passive mixer core, a dual-input LO selec-
table switch, and an LO buffer. On-chip baluns are also
integrated to allow for a single-ended RF input for
downconversion (or RF output for upconversion) and
single-ended LO inputs. The MAX2032 requires a nomi-
nal LO drive of 0dBm, and supply current is guaranteed
to be below 100mA.
The MAX2032 is pin compatible with the MAX2039/
MAX2041 1700MHz to 2200MHz mixers, making this
family of passive upconverters and downconverters
ideal for applications where a common PCB layout is
used for both frequency bands.
The MAX2032 is available in a compact 20-pin thin
QFN package (5mm x 5mm) with an exposed pad.
Electrical performance is guaranteed over the extended
-40°C to +85°C temperature range.

section for details. The junction
temperature must not exceed +150°C.
Note 3:
Package thermal resistances were obtained using the method described in JEDEC specification JESD51-7, using a four-
layer board. For detailed information on package thermal considerations, refer to
www.maxim-ic.com/thermal-tutorial.

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.

Operation outside this range is possible, but with degraded performance of some parameters.

All limits include external component losses. Output measurements are taken at IF or RF port of the
Typical Application Circuit.
Compression point characterized. It is advisable not to continuously operate the mixer RF/IF inputs above +12dBm.
Guaranteed by design.
Measured with external LO source noise filtered, so its noise floor is -174dBm/Hz. This specification reflects the effects of all
SNR degradations in the mixer, including the LO noise as defined in Application Note 2021:
