The MAX19708 is an ultra-low-power, mixed-signal analog front-end (AFE) designed for TD-SCDMA handsets and data cards. Optimized for high dynamic performance at ultra-low power, the device integrates a dual 10-bit, 11Msps receive (Rx) ADC; dual 10-bit, 11Msps transmit (Tx) DAC with TD-SCDMA baseband filters; three fast-settling 12-bit aux-DAC channels for ancillary RF front-end control; and a 10-bit, 333ksps housekeeping aux-ADC. The typical operating power in Tx-Rx FAST mode is 36.9mW at a 5.12MHz clock frequency.
The Rx ADCs feature 55dB SNR and 77.4dBc SFDR at a 1.87MHz input frequency with an 11MHz clock frequency. The analog I/Q input amplifiers are fully differential and accept 1.024V
P-P full-scale signals. Typical I/Q channel matching is ±0.08° phase and ±0.02dB gain.
The Tx DACs with TD-SCDMA lowpass filters feature -3dB cutoff frequency of 1.32MHz and > 55dB stopband rejection at f
IMAGE = 4.32MHz. The analog I-Q full-scale output voltage range is selectable at ±410mV or ±500mV differential. The output DC common-mode voltage is selectable from 0.9V to 1.4V. The I/Q channel offset is adjustable to optimize radio lineup sideband/carrier suppression. Typical I-Q channel matching is ±0.02dB gain and ±0.04° phase.
The Rx ADC and Tx DAC share a single, 10-bit parallel, high-speed digital bus allowing half-duplex operation for time-division duplex (TDD) applications. A 3-wire serial interface controls power-management modes, the aux-DAC channels, and the aux-ADC channels. The MAX19708 operates on a single +2.7V to +3.3V analog supply and +1.8V to +3.3V digital I/O supply. The MAX19708 is specified for the extended (-40°C to +85°C) temperature range and is available in a 48-pin, thin QFN package.
