The PFD output controls a charge pump whose output drives an off-chip loop filter. The loop filter output is then applied to an integrated VCO. The VCO output at 2× fLO is applied to an LO divider, as well as to a programmable PLL divider. The programmable PLL divider is controlled by a sigma-delta modulator (SDM). The modulus of the SDM can be programmed from 1 to 2047. The active mixer converts the single-ended 50 Ω RF input to a 200 Ω differential IF output. The IF output can operate up to 500 MHz. The ADRF6603 is fabricated using an advanced silicon-germanium BiCMOS process. It is available in a 40-lead, RoHS-compliant, 6 mm × 6 mm LFCSP with an exposed paddle. Performance is specified over the −40°C to +85°C temperature range. APPLICATIONS Cellular base stations GENERAL DESCRIPTION The ADRF6603 is a high dynamic range active mixer with integrated fractional-N phase-locked loop (PLL) and voltagecontrolled oscillator (VCO) for internal mixer LO generation. Along with the ADRF6602, the ADRF6603 forms a family of integrated PLL/mixers that cover the frequency range of 2100 MHz to 2600 MHz.

Power supply voltage range is 4.75 V to 5.25 V. Each power supply pin should be decoupled with a 100 pF capacitor and a 0.1 μF capacitor located close to the pin. Decoupling Node for 3.3 V LDO. Connect a 0.1 μF capacitor between this pin and ground. Charge Pump Output Pin. Connect to VTUNE through the loop filter. Ground. Connect these pins to a low impedance ground plane. RSET Charge Pump Current. The nominal charge pump current can be set to 250 μA, 500 μA, 750 μA, or 1 mA using Bit DB11 and Bit DB10 in Register 4 and by setting Bit DB18 to 0 (internal reference current). In this mode, no external RSET is required. If Bit DB18 is set to 1, the four nominal charge pump currents (INOMINAL) can be externally adjusted according to the following equation: ⎛ 217.4 × I CP R SET = ⎜ ⎜I ⎝ NOMINAL 6 8 9 10 12 13 14 16 REF_IN MUXOUT DECL2P5 VCC2 DATA CLK LE PLL_EN ⎞ ⎟ − 37.8 Ω ⎟ ⎠ 17, 34 18, 19 22 26 VCC_LO IFP, IFN VCC_MIX RFIN Reference Input. Nominal input level is 1 V p-p. Input range is 12 MHz to 160 MHz. Multiplexer Output. This output can be programmed to provide the reference output signal or the lock detect signal. The output is selected by programming the appropriate register. Decoupling Node for 2.5 V LDO. Connect a 0.1 μF capacitor between this pin and ground. Power Supply for the 2.5 V LDO. Power supply voltage range is 4.75 V to 5.25 V. Each power supply pin should be decoupled with a 100 pF capacitor and a 0.1 μF capacitor located close to the pin. Serial Data Input. The serial data input is loaded MSB first; the three LSBs are the control bits. Serial Clock Input. The serial clock input is used to clock in the serial data to the registers. The data is latched into the 24-bit shift register on the CLK rising edge. Maximum clock frequency is 20 MHz. Load Enable. When the LE input pin goes high, the data stored in the shift registers is loaded into one of the eight registers. The relevant latch is selected by the three control bits of the 24-bit word. PLL Enable. Switch between internal PLL and external LO input. When this pin is logic high, the mixer LO is automatically switched to the internal PLL and the internal PLL is powered up. When this pin is logic low, the internal PLL is powered down and the external LO input is routed to the mixer LO inputs. The SPI can also be used to switch modes. Power Supply. Power supply voltage range is 4.75 V to 5.25 V. Each power supply pin should be decoupled with a 100 pF capacitor and a 0.1 μF capacitor located close to the pin. Mixer IF Outputs. These outputs should be pulled to VCC with RF chokes. Power Supply. Power supply voltage range is 4.75 V to 5.25 V.

PROGRAMMING THE ADRF6603 The ADRF6603 is programmed via a 3-pin SPI port. The timing requirements for the SPI port are shown in Figure 2. Eight programmable registers, each with 24 bits, control the operation of the device. The register functions are listed in Table 8. After this procedure, the other registers can be programmed, in order, from Register 7 to Register 3, and then from Register 0 to Register 2, as described in the Programming the ADRF6603 section. Rev. 0 | Page 15 of 24 ADRF6603 LO SELECTION LOGIC The downconverting mixer in the ADRF6603 can be used without the internal PLL by applying an external differential LO to Pin 37 and Pin 38 (LON and LOP). In addition, when using an LO generated by the internal PLL, the LO signal can be accessed directly at these same pins. This function can be used for debugging purposes, or the internally generated LO can be used as the LO for a separate mixer. Table 9. LO Selection Logic Pin 16 (PLL_EN) 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 The operation of the LO generation and whether LOP and LON are inputs or outputs are determined by the logic levels applied at Pin 16 (PLL_EN) and Pin 36 (LODRV_EN), as well as Bit DB3 (LDRV) and Bit DB6 (PLEN) in Register 5. The combination of externally applied logic and internal bits required for particular LO functions is given in Table 9.

The six power supply pins should be individually decoupled using 100 pF and 0.1 μF capacitors located as close as possible to the device. In addition, the internal decoupling nodes (DECL3P3, DECL2P5, and DECLVCO) should be decoupled with the capacitor values shown in Figure 21. The RF input is internally ac-coupled and needs no external bias. The IF outputs are open collector, and a bias inductor is required from these outputs to VCC. A peak-to-peak differential swing on RFIN of 1 V (0.353 V rms for a sine wave input) results in an IF output power of 4.7 dBm. The reference frequency for the PLL should be from 12 MHz to 160 MHz and should be applied to the REF_IN pin, which should be ac-coupled and terminated with a 50 Ω resistor as VCC R43 10kΩ (0402) S2 VCC RED +5V C7 0.1µF (0402) VCC1 RED R39 OPEN (0402) S1 OPEN R40 0Ω (0402) LO IN/OUT R41 0Ω (0402) 4 5 3 R6 0Ω (0402) C8 100pF (0402) VCC_LO 34 shown in Figure 21. The reference signal, or a divided-down version of the reference signal, can be brought back off chip at the multiplexer output pin (MUXOUT). A lock detect signal and a voltage proportional to the ambient temperature can also be selected on the multiplexer output pin. The loop filter is connected between the CP and VTUNE pins. When connected in this way, the internal VCO is operational. For information about the loop filter components, see the Evaluation Board Configuration Options section. Operation with an external VCO is also possible. In this case, the loop filter components should be referred to ground. The output of the loop filter is connected to the input voltage pin of the external VCO. The output of the VCO is brought back into the device on the LOP and LON pins, using a balun if necessary.

This board has four layers and was designed using Rogers 4350 hybrid material to minimize high frequency losses. FR4 material is also adequate if the design can accept the slightly higher trace loss of this material. The evaluation board is designed to operate using the internal VCO of the device (the default configuration) or with an external VCO. To use an external VCO, R62 and R12 should be removed. Place 0 Ω resistors in R63 and R11. The input of the external VCO should be connected to the VTUNE SMA connector, and the external VCO output should be connected to the LO IN/OUT SMA connector. In addition to these hardware changes, internal register settings must also be changed to enable operation with an external VCO (see the Register 6— VCO Control and VCO Enable (Default: 0x1E2106) section). Additional configuration options for the evaluation board are described in Table 10. EVALUATION BOARD CONTROL SOFTWARE Software to program the ADRF6603 is available for download from www.analog.com. To install the software, download and extract the zip file. Then run the following installation file: ADRF6x0x_3p0p0_XP_install.exe The evaluation board can be connected to the PC using a PC parallel port or a USB port. These options are selectable from the opening menu of the software interface (see Figure 22). The evaluation board is shipped with a 25-pin parallel port cable for connection to the PC parallel port. To connect the evaluation board to a USB port, a USB adapter board (Part No. EVAL-ADF4XXXZ-USB) must be purchased from www.analog.com. This board connects to the PC using a standard USB cable with USB mini-connector at one end. An additional 25-pin male to 9-pin female adapter is required to mate the ADF4XXXZ-USB board to the 9-pin D-Sub connector on the ADRF6603 evaluation board. Figure 22.

Component S1, R55, R56, R33 Description LO select. Switch and resistors to ground the LODRV_EN pin. The LODRV_EN pin setting, in combination with internal register settings, determines whether the LOP and LON pins function as inputs or outputs (see the LO Selection Logic section for more information). LO input/output. An external 1× LO or 2× LO can be applied to this single-ended input connector. Reference input. The input reference frequency for the PLL is applied to this connector. Input impedance is 50 Ω. Multiplexer output. The REFOUT connector connects directly to the MUXOUT pin. The on-board multiplexer can be programmed to bring out the following signals: REFIN, 2× REFIN, REFIN/2, REFIN/4. Temperature sensor output voltage. Lock detect indicator. Charge pump test point. The unfiltered charge pump signal can be probed at this test point. Note that the CP pin should not be probed during critical measurements such as phase noise. Loop filter. Loop filter components. Loop filter return. When the internal VCO is used, the loop filter components should be returned to Pin 40 (DECLVCO) by installing a 0 Ω resistor in R12. When an external VCO is used, the loop filter components can be returned to ground by installing a 0 Ω resistor in R11. Internal vs. external VCO. When the internal VCO is enabled, the loop filter components are connected directly to the VTUNE pin (Pin 39) by installing a 0 Ω resistor in R62. To use an external VCO, R62 should be left open. A 0 Ω resistor should be installed in R63, and the voltage input of the VCO should be connected to the VTUNE SMA connector. The output of the VCO is brought back into the PLL via the LO IN/OUT SMA connector. RSET pin. This pin is unused and should be left open. RF input. The RF input signal should be applied to the RFIN SMA connector. The RF input of the ADRF6603 is ac-coupled, therefore, no bias is necessary. IF output. The differential IF output signals from the ADRF6603 (IFP and IFN) are converted to a single-ended signal by T3.
