The RF2890 is a high performance dual band CDMA Cel-
lular and GPS LNA/mixer. An integrated optional LO pres-
caler allows VCO flexibility. The device is designed to
exceed all sensitivity, intermodulation and single-tone
requirements. The RF2890 is designed for three state
gain control solutions (17.5dB of gain control) for cellular
band IMD testing. The device offers a dedicated low cur-
rent (15.5mA) GPS LNA/mixer with 32.5dB gain. An inte-
grated TX LO buffer is also included. The design is
flexible, in that the bias currents may be set using off-chip
current reference resistors for the mixer and LNA blocks.
Noise figure, IIP3, and other specifications are designed
to be compatible with the TIA/EIA 98D standard for
CDMA cellular communications. The device is packaged
in a plastic, 4mmx4mm QFN.
