DATA SHEET • SKY73084-11 DOWNCONVERSION MIXER
Functional Description
The SKY73084-11 is a high gain diversity mixer, optimized for
base station receiver applications. The device consists of two
diversity channels, each consisting of a low loss RF balun, high
linearity passive mixer, and a low noise IF amplifier.
LO amplifiers are also included that allow the SKY73084-11 to
connect directly to the output of a Voltage Controlled Oscillator
(VCO). This eliminates the extra gain stages needed by most
discrete passive mixers. A Single Pole, Double Throw (SPDT)
switch has been included to select between two different LO
inputs for frequency hopping applications (i.e., GSM).
RF Baluns and Passive Mixer
The RF baluns provide a single ended input, which can easily be
matched to 50
Ω
using a simple matching circuit. The RF
baluns offer very low loss and excellent amplitude and phase
balance.
The high linearity mixer is a passive, double balanced mixer that
provides a very low insertion loss, and excellent 3
rd
Order Input
Insertion Point (IIP3) and linearity performance.
Additionally, the balanced nature of the mixer provides for
excellent port-to-port isolation.
LO Buffers and SPDT LO Switch
The LO buffers allow the input power of the SKY73084-11 to be
programmed in the range of –6 to +6 dBm. The LO section has
been optimized for high-side LO injection. However, the LO can
be driven over a wide frequency range with only slight
degradation in performance.
A high isolation SPDT switch allows the SKY73084-11 to be
used for frequency hopping applications. This switch provides
greater than 60 dB of LO1 to LO2 isolation:

State:

For applications that do not require frequency hopping, LO_SEL
is fixed to one state and the appropriate LO input is used.
IF Amplifier
The SKY73084-11 includes high dynamic range IF amplifiers
that follow the passive mixers in the signal path. The outputs
require a supply voltage connection using inductive chokes.
These choke inductors should be high-Q and have the ability to
handle 200 mA or greater.
A simple matching network allows the output ports to be
matched to a balanced 200
Ω
impedance. The IF amplifiers are
optimized for IF frequencies between 50 and 250 MHz. The IF
amplifiers can be operated outside of this range, but with a
slight degradation in performance.

Notes:
Exposure to maximum rating conditions for extended periods may reduce device reliability. There is no damage to device with only one parameter set at the limit and all other
parameters set at or below their nominal value.

The SKY73084-11 has been optimized for high-side LO injection. However, the LO can be used outside of the specified frequency range with degraded performance.
