MAX2022
Modulator Baseband I/Q Input Drive
The MAX2022 I and Q baseband inputs should be driven
differentially for best performance. The baseband inputs
have  a  50?  differential  input  impedance.  The  optimum 
source impedance for the I and Q inputs is 100? differen -
tial. This source impedance will achieve the optimal signal
transfer to the I and Q inputs, and the optimum output RF
impedance match. The MAX2022 can accept input power
levels of up to +12dBm on the I and Q inputs. Operation
with complex waveforms, such as CDMA or WCDMA
carriers, utilize input power levels that are far lower. This
lower power operation is made necessary by the high
peak-to-average ratios of these complex waveforms. The
peak signals must be kept below the compression level of
the MAX2022. The input common-mode voltage should
be confined to the -2V to +1.5V DC range.
The MAX2022 is designed to interface directly with Maxim
high-speed DACs. This generates an ideal total transmit-
ter lineup, with minimal ancillary circuit elements. Such
DACs  include  the  MAX5875  series  of  dual  DACs,  and 
the MAX5895 dual interpolating DAC. These DACs have 
ground-referenced differential current outputs. Typical
termination of each DAC output into a 50? load resistor 
to ground, and a 10mA nominal DC output current results
in a 0.5V common-mode DC level into the modulator I/Q
inputs. The nominal signal level provided by the DACs will

Downconversion 1500MHz to 3000MHz
Quadrature Modulator/Demodulator
be in the -12dBm range for a single CDMA or WCDMA
carrier, reducing to -18dBm per carrier for a four-carrier
application.
The I/Q input bandwidth is greater than 50MHz at -0.1dB
response. The direct connection of the DAC to the
MAX2022 insures the maximum signal fidelity, with no
performance-limiting baseband amplifiers required. The
DAC output can be passed through a lowpass filter to
remove the image frequencies from the DAC’s output
response. The  MAX5895  dual  interpolating  DAC  can  be 
operated at interpolation rates up to x8. This has the ben-
efit of moving the DAC image frequencies to a very high,
remote frequency, easing the design of the baseband
filters. The DAC’s output noise floor and interpolation
filter stopband attenuation are sufficiently good to insure
that  the  3GPP  noise  floor  requirement  is  met  for  large 
frequency offsets, 60MHz for example, with no filtering
required on the RF output of the modulator.
Figure 1 illustrates the ease and efficiency of interfac-
ing the MAX2022 with a Maxim DAC, in this case the
MAX5895 dual 16-bit interpolating-modulating DAC.
The  MAX5895  DAC  has  programmable  gain  and  dif -
ferential offset controls built in. These can be used to
optimize the LO leakage and sideband suppression of the
MAX2022 quadrature modulator.
