LO input signal. This pin has an internal DC-blocking capacitor. This port is voltage-driven so matching at different frequencies is generally not required. The reference end of local oscillator. Ground connection. Power supply. An external capacitor is required. Reference voltage for the I mixer. The DC voltage should be the same as the DC supplied to I SIG (pin 7). See pin 7 for more information. The SIG and REF inputs are inputs of a differential amplifier. Therefore, the REF and SIG inputs are interchangeable. If swapping the I SIG and I REF pins, the Q SIG and Q REF also need to be swapped to maintain the correct phase. It is also possible to drive the SIG and REF inputs in a differential mode which will increase gain. Baseband input to the I mixer. This pin is DC-coupled. The input drive level determines output power and linearity performance. For better carrier/sideband suppression and dynamic range, the drive level should be as high as possible to meet the required linearity performance. The recommended DC level for this pin is 2.05V.
