LTM9003 12-Bit Digital Pre-Distortion µModule Receiver Subsystem FeaTures DescripTion n Fully Integrated Receiver Subsystem for Digital The LTM®9003 is a 12-bit digital pre-distortion µModule® Pre-Distortion Applications receiver subsystem for the transmit path of cellular bases- n Down-Converting Mixer with Wide RF Frequency tations. Utilizing an integrated system in a package (SiP) Range: 400MHz to 3.8GHz technology, it includes a downconverting mixer, wideband n 125MHz Wide Bandpass Filter, <0.5dB Passband filter and analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The system Ripple is tuned for an intermediate frequency (IF) of 184MHz n Low Power ADC with Up to 12-Bit Resolution, and a signal bandwidth of up to 125MHz. The 12-bit ADC 250Msps Sample Rate samples at rates up to 250Msps. Contact Linear Technol- n –145.5dBm/Hz Input Noise Floor, 25.6dBm IIP3 ogy regarding customization. n 1.5W Total Power Consumption The high signal level downconverting active mixer is opti- n 50Ω Single-Ended RF and LO Ports mized for high linearity, wide dynamic range IF sampling n Internal Bypass Capacitance, No External applications. It includes a differential LO buffer amplifier Components driving a double-balanced mixer. Broadband, integrated n ADC Clock Duty Cycle Stabilizer transformers on the RF and LO inputs provide single n 11.25mm × 15mm LGA package ended 50Ω interfaces. The RF and LO inputs are internally matched to 50Ω from 1.1GHz to 1.8GHz. applicaTions The CLK input controls converter operation and may be n Transmit Observation Path Receivers driven differential y or single-ended. An optional clock duty n Digital Pre-Distortion (DPD) Receivers cycle stabilizer allows high performance at full speed for n Wideband Receiver a wide range of clock duty cycles. n Wideband Instrumentation L, LT, LTC, LTM, Linear Technology, the Linear logo and µModule are registered trademarks of Linear Technology Corporation.
