MAX2820
2.4GHz 802.11b Zero-IF Transceivers
General Description
The MAX2820/MAX2821 single-chip zero-IF transceivers
are designed for the 802.11b (11Mbps) applications
operating in the 2.4GHz to 2.5GHz ISM band. The trans-
ceivers are nearly identical, except the MAX2821 pro-
vides a low-power shutdown mode and an analog
voltage reference output feature and the MAX2820 does
not. The transceivers include all the circuitry required to
implement an 802.11b RF-to-baseband transceiver solu-
tion, providing a fully integrated receive path, transmit
path, VCO, frequency synthesis, and baseband/control
interface. Only a PA, RF switch, RF BPF, and a small
number of passive components are needed to form the
complete radio front-end solution.
The ICs eliminate the need for external IF and base-
band filters by utilizing a direct-conversion radio archi-
tecture and monolithic baseband filters for both
receiver and transmitter. They are specifically opti-
mized for 802.11b (11Mbps CCK) applications. The
baseband filtering and RX and TX signal paths support
the CCK modulation scheme for BER = 10-5 at the
required sensitivity levels.
The devices are suitable for the full range of 802.11b
data rates (1Mbps, 2Mbps, 5.5Mbps, and 11Mbps) and
also the higher-rate 22Mbps PBCCTMstandard. The
MAX2820/MAX2821 are available in the very small 7mm7mm 48-lead QFN package.

(Note 11)
Note 1:Parameters are production tested at +25°C only. Min/max limits over temperature are guaranteed by design and charac-
terization.
Note 2:Defined as the baseband differential RMS output voltage divided by the RMS input voltage (at the RF balun input).
Note 3:Noise-figure specification excludes the loss of the external balun. The external balun loss is typically ~0.5dB.
Note 4:CCK interferer at 25MHz offset. Desired signal equals -73dBm. Interferer amplitude increases until baseband output from
interferer is 10dB below desired signal. Adjacent channel rejection = Pinterferer- Pdesired.
Note 5:Measured at balun input. Two CW tones at -43dBm with 15MHz and 25MHz spacing from the MAX2820/MAX2821 channel
frequency. IP3 is computed from 5MHz IMD3 product measured at the RX I/Q output.
Note 6:Two CW interferers at -38dBm with 24.5MHz and 25.5MHz spacing from the MAX2820/MAX2821 channel frequency. IP2 is
computed from the 1MHz IMD2 product measured at the RX I/Q output.
Note 7:Output power measured after the matching and balun. TX gain is set to maximum.
Note 8:Adjacent and alternate channel power relative to the desired signal. TX gain is adjusted until the output power is -1dBm.
Power measured with 100kHz video BW and 100kHz resolution BW.
Note 9:Time required to reprogram the PLL, change the operating channel, and wait for the operating channel center frequency to
settle within ±10kHz of the nominal (final) channel frequency.
Note 10:Relative amplitude of reference spurious products appearing in the TX RF output spectrum relative to a CW tone at
0.5MHz offset from the LO.
Note 11:Min/max limits are guaranteed by design and characterization.
