Maxim Integrated
General Description
The MAX2690 is a miniature, low-noise, low-power downconverter mixer designed for use in portable consumer equipment. Signals at the RF input port are mixed with signals at the local-oscillator (LO) port using a double-balanced mixer. The RF port frequency range is 400MHz to 2500MHz. The LO port frequency range is 700MHz to 2500MHz. The IF frequency range is 10MHz to 500MHz, provided the LO and RF frequencies are chosen appropriately.
