CV111-3A: The application circuit can be broken up into four main
functions as denoted in the colored dotted areas above: RF/IF
diplexing (purple; this is only used with the cellular-band CV
products), amplifier matching (green), filtering (red), and dc biasing
(blue). There are various placeholders for chip components in the
circuit schematic so that a common PCB can be used for all WJ
single-branch converters. Additional placeholders for other optional
functions such as filtering are also included.
RF / IF Amplifier Matching:
matching element for optimal gain and input return loss performance.
The IF amplifier requires matching elements to optimize the
performance of the amplifier to the desired IF center frequency.
Since IF bandwidths are typically on the order of 5 to 10%, a simple
two element matching network, in the form of either a high-pass or
low-pass filter structure, is sufficient to match the MMIC IF
amplifier over these narrow bandwidths. Proper component values
for other IF center frequencies can be provided by emailing to
[e-mail].

RF Bandpass Filtering:
achieve the best noise figure performance with the downconverter.
The bandpass filter, implemented with a SAW filter on the
application circuit, allows for the suppression of noise from the
image frequency. It is permissible to not use a filter and use a 2 dB
pad with R6, R7, and R16 instead with slightly degraded noise
figure performance.
External Diplexer:
products.
CV111-3A; therefore the components shown in the diplexer section
should be loaded as follows: C2 = C14 = 0 Ω.
DC biasing:
amplifiers in the converter. R1 sets the operating current for the last
stage of the LO amplifier and is chosen to optimize the mixer LO
drive level. Proper RF chokes and bypass capacitors are chosen for
proper amplifier biasing at the intended frequency of operation. The
“+5 V” dc bias should be supplied directly from a voltage regulator.
