There are various placeholders for chip components in the circuit schematic so that a common PCB can be used for all WJ dual-branch converters. Further details are given in the Application Note located on the website titled “CV2xx Series - PWB Design Guidelines”. WiMax Operation: There is no change to the application circuit for 2.5 GHz to 2.7 GHz operation. External Diplexer: This is only used with the cellular-band CV products. The mixer performs the diplexing internally for the CV211-2A; therefore the components shown in the diplexer section should be not be loaded except for L3, L10, L7, and L11, which should contain a 0 Ω jumper.

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. The Communications Edge TM Product Information DC biasing: DC bias must be provided for the LO and IF 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.
