HMC795LP5E v00.0409 modulators - direct quadrature - SMT 10 Typical Applications Features The HMC795LP5E is ideal for: High Linearity OIP3: + 22 dBm * UMTS, GSM or CDMA Basestations High Output Power: +10 dBm Output P1dB * Fixed Wireless or WLL High Carrier Suppression: 55 dBc * ISM Transceivers, 900 & 2400 MHz High Sideband Suppression: 53 dBc * GMSK, QPSK, QAM, SSB Modulators Read/Write Serial Port Interface (SPI) * Cellular/3G and WiMAX/4G SPI & 6-bit parallel port programmable 32 dB Gain Control * Microwave IFs DC - 440 MHz Baseband Input 32 Lead 5x5 mm QFN Package: 25 mm2 Functional Diagram General Description The HMC795LP5E is a variable gain, direct quadrature modulator ideal for digital modulation applications from 50 - 2800 MHz including: Cellular/3G, Broadband Wireless Access and ISM circuits. Housed in a compact 5x5mm (LP5) SMT QFN package, the modulator offers a high level of integration, exceptionally low carrier feedthrough, and a low cost alternative to more complicated double upconversion architectures. The LO requires -9 to +3 dBm and can be driven in either differential or single-ended mode. The baseband inputs will support modulation inputs from DC - 440 MHz. The differential RF output port is driven by a 6 bit digital controlled variable gain amplifier to nominally provide up to 32 dB of very linear gain control in 0.5 dB steps. The low carrier suppression is maintained over the VGA dynamic range. The gain control interface accepts either three wire serial input or 6 bit parallel word. In addition, the gain control can be modified through the SPI to adjust a look up table to control the gain step to as low as 0.1 dB, with reduced range, or to adjust individual gain steps for system linearization.

The "Uncalibrated" Carrier Suppression plots were measured at T= -40 C, +25 C, and +85 C. The "Calibrated" Carrier Suppression data was plotted after a manual adjustment of the IP/IN & QP/QN DC offsets at +25 C, 5V Vcc, 0 dBm LO input power level, and the RF output frequency set to the midband of the measurement range. The adjustment settings were held constant during tests over temperature and frequency.

HMC795LP5E v00.0409 SiGe Wideband Direct Quadrature Modulator w/ vga, 50 - 2800 MHz Theory of Operation The HMC795LP5E modulator consists of the following functional blocks 1. LO Interface 2. I/Q modulator 3. Digitally controlled variable gain amplifier 4. Gain control DAC 5. Bias Circuit 6. Serial Port interface The LO interface consists of a gain stage followed by a divide by 2 stage that generates two carrier signals in quadrature which are used to drive the mixers. As a result, the LO path is immune to large variations in the LO signal level and the modulator performance does not vary much with LO power. Due to the on chip divider, the input LO frequency must be twice that of the desired carrier frequency. This offers the advantage of significantly lowering carrier feedthrough. The LO port can be driven differentially or single ended if the unused side is AC grounded. However, when driven single-endedly, the carrier feedthrough and sideband rejection can be degraded by either large 2nd order LO tones, such as when driven by a VCO with a divider output, or, by large half-harmonic tones, such as when driven by a VCO with a doubler output. The LO interface can be enabled/disabled separately through the serial port interface using Reg01h <0> and can be used to disable the modulator output. The RF output signal is suppressed by 100 dB when only the LO interface is disable and the LO signal itself is suppressed approximately 60 dB. In addition, the LO buffer bias can be increased using Reg02h <7>. This setting is recommended for LO frequencies above 5 GHz. I/Q Modulator The HMC795LP5E has two double-balanced mixers, one for the in-phase channel and one for the quadrature channel. The differential baseband inputs (QP, QN, IP, and IN) consist of the bases of NPN transistors, which present a high impedance. The DC common mode voltage at the baseband inputs sets the currents in the two mixer cores. Varying the baseband common mode voltage varies the current in the mixers and affects the overall modulators performance. The recommended DC voltage for the baseband common mode voltage is 1.3V DC, 0.1V. The output of the two mixers are summed together differentially and then used to drive the differential input of the VGA stage. The mixer can be enabled/disabled with Reg01h <1>. The external baseband DC bias also need to be disabled to completely disable the mixers. Disabling the mixer enables a weak pull down at the mixer inputs which connects the mixer inputs through a resistive path to ground. This may pull the external input low resulting in large current flow if the external bias is not disabled.

The VGA also provides relatively constant phase over the entire gain range, as shown in Figure 1. An 11 bit DAC is used to control the VGA. See the Gain Control DAC section for more detail about gain control. -130 ATTENUATION (dB) Figure 1. VGA S21 magnitude and phase @ 2 GHz vs attenuation For maximum performance and flexibility, the output ports of the VGA are differential open collectors that require pull up inductors to the positive supply and external matching components. The evaluation board allows for several options for matching. See the Output Matching section for more details. The VGA can be enabled/disabled separately through the SPI using Reg01h <2>. The ON/OFF isolation of the VGA is greater than 60 dB for RF output frequencies up to 2.5 GHz. Gain Control DAC An 11 bit DAC is used to control the VGA for linear-in-dB gain control, Figure 2 shows the control for the DAC.. The DAC is normally controlled by a look up table (LUT) that is in turn, controlled by the 6 bit parallel port. The values of the look up table are fixed to give 0.5 dB steps over a 31.5 dB gain range. Figure 2. Simplified DAC control diagram For increased flexibility, there are three methods to control the DAC and VGA gain. 1. Parallel Mode Use the 6 bit parallel port to provide fixed 0.5 dB gain steps. In this mode the DAC is controlled by a look up table with 64 states that map the 6 bit parallel port to fixed 11-Bit gain words for each state. The values of the LUT are fixed to give nominally 0.5 dB attenuation steps over a 31.5 dB gain range.

Correction Mode Use the SPI port in conjunction with the 6 bit parallel port to apply a 4 bit, 2's complement, correction factor to any attenuation step. This option can be used to compensate the gain control for systematic variations in the transmit chain by adding negative or positive correction factors to any of the fixed LUT values to either slightly increase or decrease the gain step for that particulate state. This mode requires the host controller to write the desired corrections to the SPI after the chip is powered up. The correction factors are then applied to the desired gain steps when ever the parallel port gain control changes, until the chip is powered down. COR(dB) = 10 * log10 [( 1+ (CORword * mult) LUTword -1 ) ] where mult is the correction multiplication factor, and CORword and LUTword are the decimal equivalent of the binary correction and LUT word. An expression for determining the LUTword is given in the bypass mode section below. Figures 3, 4 and 5 show the range of correction in dB for 4 dB, 16 dB and 31.5 dB attenuation and Figure 6 shows the output power versus attenuation for no correction, maximum positive and maximum negative correction applied to all states in the LUT. The LUT value for 0 dB attenuation can only be decreased since it already at maximum. Increasing the word value will cause an overflow resulting in maximum attenuation instead. 1 0.3 X3 X4 ATTENUATION CHANGE (dB) ATTENUATION CHANGE (dB) 0.2 X2 0.1 X1 0 -0.1 -0.2 -0.3 -8 -6 -4 -2 0 2 4 6 X4 X2 X1 0 -0.5 -1 8 X3 0.5 -8 -6 -4 -2 0 2 4 6 8 LUT CORRECTION WORD LUT CORRECTION WORD Figure 3.

The correction factor for 0 dB attenuation (line 0) is set in Reg4h <3:0>, 0.5 dB (line 1) is set by Reg4h <7:4>, 1.0 dB (line 2) by Reg4h<11:8> and so on until Reg13h <15:12> which sets the correction factor for 31.5 dB attenuation. If more adjustment is needed, the LUT correction values can be increased by a factor of 2, 3, or 4 times by using Reg2h <15:8>. Reg2h <9:8> sets the multiplication factor for the first quadrant of the LUT, lines 0 to 15, <11:10> for lines 16 to 31, <13:12> for lines 32 to 47 and <15:14> for the last quadrant, lines 48 to 63.

In this mode Reg2h<4> is set to enable the bypass mode. The host controller can then write the desired gain word to the SPI using Reg3h<10:0> for each and every desired gain change. The input word can be determined from the desired gain (in dB) by LUTword(10:0) = dec2bin[round[(211 - 1) * 10 (-attn)/20]] and is plotted in Figure 7.

HMC795LP5E v00.0409 SiGe Wideband Direct Quadrature Modulator w/ vga, 50 - 2800 MHz Bias Circuit A band gap reference circuit generates the reference currents used by the different sections. The bias circuit can be disabled with Reg01h <4>. Disabling the bias circuit will also disable the reference currents to all the other sections except the mixers, since they use an external bias. An external pin, pin 24, is also provided to allow for external decoupling for low noise performance, 100nF is recommended. Power on Reset and Soft Reset Serial Port Interface The HMC795LP5E features a four wire serial port for simple communication with the host controller. Register types may be Read Only, Write Only, or Read/Write, as described in the registers descriptions. Typical serial port operation can be run with SCK at speeds up to 50 MHz. The HMC795LP5E chip address is fixed as "4d" or "100b". Serial Port WRITE Operation A typical WRITE cycle is shown in Figure 8. It is 40 clock cycles long. 1. The host both asserts SEN (active low Serial Port Enable) and places the MSB of the data on SDI followed by a rising edge on SCLK. 2. HMC795LP5E reads SDI on the 1st rising edge of SCLK after SEN. 3. HMC795LP5E registers the data bits in the next 29 rising edges of SCLK. 4. Host places the seven register address bits on the next seven falling edges of SCLK, MSB first. 5. HMC795LP5E registers the register address bits in the next seven rising edges of SCLK. 6. Host places the 3 chip address bits <100> on the next 3 falling edges of SCLK, MSB first. 7. HMC795LP5E registers the chip address bits in the next 3 rising edges of SCLK. 8. SEN is de-asserted on the 40th falling edge of SCLK. This completes the WRITE cycle. 9. HMC795LP5E also exports data back on the SDO line. For details see the section on READ operation. The host changes the data on the falling edge of SCLK and the HMC795LP5E reads the data on the rising edge. Serial Port READ Operation The SPI can read from the internal registers in the chip. The data is available on SDO line. This line itself is tri-stated after power up. After a WRITE cycle, the HMC795LP5E controls the SDO line and exports data on this line during the current WRITE cycle. The HMC795LP5E chip address is fixed as `4d' or `100b' A READ operation is always preceded by a WRITE operation to Register 0 to define the register to be queried. Every READ cycle is also a WRITE cycle in that data sent to the SPI while reading the data will also be stored by the HMC795LP5E when SEN goes high. If this is not desired then it is suggested to write to Register 0 during the READ operation as the status of the device will be unaffected. A typical READ cycle is also shown in Figure 8. A read cycle is 40 clock cycles long. To specifically read a register, the address of that register must be written in the register 0. A read cycle can then be initiated as follows; 10 modulators - direct quadrature - SMT The HMC795LP5E features a hardware Power On Reset (POR). All chip registers will be reset to default states approximately 250 us after power up. The SPI registers may also be hardware reset by holding RSTB, pin 1, low, or software reset by writing 80h to Reg00h followed by writing 00h to Reg00h. 1. The host asserts SEN (active low Serial Port Enable) followed by a rising edge SCLK. 2. HMC795LP5E reads SDI (the MSB) on the 1st rising edge of SCK after SEN.

HMC795LP5E v00.0409 SiGe Wideband Direct Quadrature Modulator w/ vga, 50 - 2800 MHz Output Matching The output ports of the VGA are differential open collectors that require pull up inductors to the positive supply and external matching components. The evaluation board uses a 2:1 impedance transformer to convert the differential output to single ended for evaluation purposes. Three options are available for the evaluation board, each with different matching components, one for 850 MHz, one for 1950 MHz, and another for 2690 MHz.

Output Power for Various Matching Options [1] With TCN2-14 Transformer [1] With TCN2-14 Transformer [2] With TCN2-26 Transformer [2] With TCN2-26 Transformer A narrow band solution, with higher output power, is possible by using a simple L-match network, as shown in Figure 12. A shunt resistor is included to control the Q of the matching network and sets the output power of the HMC795LP5E. Consequently a low value resistor will result in a broadband match but lower output power than a high value resistor. The table below provides recommend component values for various output frequencies with a bandwidth of approximately 5-10%. It is also possible to use an LC matching network where L2 is removed and the DC blocking capacitor is used as a matching component. Experiments show that the output power is reduced approximately 1 -2 dB though and that values for the capacitors become unrealistic (< 500 fF) above 2 GHz.

The most basic method is to use a 50 resistor to Vcc and a 1 nF dc bypass capacitor connected in series as shown Figure 9(a). This option provides a good broadband match, see Figure 10, but limits the maximum output power, compared to a narrow band match, see Figure 11. Single-ended operation is possible by using a transformer, which can limit the bandwidth, as seen in the output power plot, or by using only one side of the differential output. However, biasing for the unused side is still required. For best performance it is recommended to terminate the unused side with the same matching and load impedance as the used side, see Figure 9(b). Output power is generally reduced by 2 to 3 dB for singleended operation, as shown in Figure 11. 10 - 22 HMC795LP5E v00.0409 SiGe Wideband Direct Quadrature Modulator w/ vga, 50 - 2800 MHz Figure 12.

Most DAC have differential outputs with a source or sink current of 0 mA to 20 mA. However, most DACs require a different output compliance voltage than that of the DC input bias level for the HMC795LP5E. A passive interface network can be used to transform the common-mode voltage of the DAC to the desired DC input bias of the modulator of 1.3V. Figures 13 and 14 show the interface network for two different topologies. 1. Topology 1. DAC Vcm > HMC795LP5E Vcm. This topology is used shift the DAC output common mode voltage down to the required DC level at the modulator input. 2. Topology 2. DAC Vcm < HMC795LP5E Vcm. This topology is used shift the DAC output common mode voltage up to the required DC level at the modulator input. The resistive level-shifting network is not frequency sensitive but the resistive divider network inherent in the network attenuates the baseband signal. The bypass capacitors shown Figures 13 and 14 will eliminate the attenuation for frequencies greater than 3 kHz. Either topology can be used on the HMC795LP5E evaluation board. Figure 13.
