DESCRIPTION
The
PC8112TB is a silicon monolithic integrated circuit designed as 1st frequency down-converter for
cellular/cordless telephone receiver stage. This IC consists of mixer and local amplifier. The
PC8112TB features
high impedance output of open collector. Similar ICs of the
PC2757TB and
PC2758TB feature low impedance
output of emitter follower. These TB suffix ICs which are smaller package than conventional T suffix ICs contribute
to reduce your system size.
The
PC8112TB is manufactured using the 20 GHz fT NESAT™III silicon bipolar process. This process uses
silicon nitride passivation film and gold electrodes. These materials can protect chip surface from external pollution
and prevent corrosion/migration. Thus, this IC has excellent performance, uniformity and reliability.
FEATURES
Excellent RF performance : IIP3 = 7 dBm@fRFin = 1.9 GHz (reference)
IM3 = 88 dBm@PRFin = 38 dBm, 1.9 GHz (reference)
Similar conversion gain to
PC2757 and lower noise figure than
PC2758
Minimized carrier leakage : RFLO = 80 dB@fRFin = 900 MHz (reference)
RFLO = 55 dB@fRFin = 1.9 GHz (reference)
High linearity : PO(sat) = 2.5 dBm TYP.@fRFin = 900 MHz
PO(sat) = 3 dBm TYP.@fRFin = 1.9 GHz
Low current consumption : ICC = 8.5 mA TYP.
Supply voltage : VCC = 2.7 to 3.3 V
High-density surface mounting : 6-pin super minimold package
APPLICATIONS
1.5 to 1.9 GHz cellular/cordless telephone (PHS, DECT, PDC1.5G and so on)
800 to 900 MHz cellular telephone (PDC800M and so on)

Remark Typical performance. Please refer to ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS in detail.
Cautions 1. The
μ
PC2757 and
μ
PC2758’s IIP3 are calculated with
Δ
IM3 = 3 which is the same IM3
inclination as
μ
PC8112. On the other hand, OIP3 of Standard characterisitcs in page 7 is
cross point IP.

The data in this page are to make clear the test condition of impedance matched to next stage, not specify the
recommended condition. The S11 smith charts of the test fixture setting IC are normalized to Z O = 50 Ω, because the
IC's load is the measurement equipment of 50 Ω impedance.
In your use, the output return loss value can be helpful information to adjust your circuit matching to next stage.

15. NOTE ON CORRECT USE
(1) Observe precautions for handling because of electro-static sensitive devices.
(2) Form a ground pattern as widely as possible to minimize ground impedance (to prevent undesired oscillation).
Keep the track length of the ground pins as short as possible.
(3) The bypass capacitor (example: 1 000 pF) should be attached to the VCC pin.
(4) The matching circuit should be externally attached to the IF output pin.
(5) The DC cut capacitor must be each attached to the input and output pins.
