Typical Applications * CDMA/Cellular/PCS/GPS Handsets * JCDMA/GPS Handsets * CDMA Modem/Data Cards Product Description
The RF2498 is a high performance CDMA tri-band/quadmode integrated LNA/mixer with GPS capability. The device is designed to meet all IS-98 sensitivity, intermodulation and single-tone requirements. The RF2498 integrates the tri-band LNA/downconverters with 27.5dB of gain control for the cellular band and 29dB for the PCS band. The RF2498 is designed for three state gain control solutions for IS-98 IMD testing. The device offers a dedicated GPS LNA/mixer with 37dB of gain. Additionally, a divide-by-2 prescaler to allow the use of either a single- or dual-band VCO is integrated. There is also a TX LO buffer. The design is flexible, in that the bias currents may be set using off-chip current reference resistors for the mixer and LNA blocks. The device is packaged in a plastic, 5mmx5mm, leadless chip carrier.

ISET2 sets the DC current through the LNAs in all bands when IPSET is high. Higher resistance to ground results in lower current through the LNA. Increasing the LNA current will improve the IIP3 of the LNA and slightly increase gain in all modes. NF typically will get worse as you increase current. Increasing the LNA current in one mode, i.e. Cellular, will also increase the LNA current for the high IPSET state for PCS and the GPS LNAs as well. ISET3 sets the DC current through the mixer and mixer preamplifier for all bands. Higher resistance to ground results in lower current. Lower current will improve mixer NF but will degrade IIP3. Mixer and the mixer preamp gain is not significantly changed with current.

ISET Pins ISET1 sets the internal reference voltage for the bias control circuits to all functional blocks. An external resistor of 5.1k to ground is required. We do not recommend adjusting this resistor value. This resistor is pulled out to allow for a higher precision off chip value and not as a significant tuning adjustment.

DC supply for internal reference, logic control, cellular mixer preamp, and GPS mixer preamp (PCS mixer preamp has its' own DC supply, PCS_RFA_VCC). External bypass capacitor between 1nF and 47nF required. Resistor for internal voltage reference setting. Recommended value 5.1k. Resistor to ground sets the LNA current in boost mode (all three LNAs). Higher resistance results in lower current. Resistor to ground sets preamp and mixer currents in all bands. Higher resistance results in lower currents. Ground connection. The backside of the package should be soldered to a top side ground pad which is connected to the ground plane with multiple vias.

See Note 4
Note: If any functional blocks are not being used, the unused pins can be left with no connection. Layout Note: To minimize losses and radiation, the RF signal traces should be as short as possible. The IF+ and IF- outputs traces should be symmetrical. All bypass capacitors and matching capacitors must have a ground via very close to the capacitor. Each capacitor should have its own ground via. All traces should be 50 transmission lines. Position inductors to reduce coupling (see note 15). NOTES: 1. This resistor sets mixer preamp and mixer currents in all bands. Lowering the resistance results in higher currents. 2. This resistor sets LNA currents of all bands in boost mode. Increasing the resistor value results in lower currents. 3. Sets internal bias voltage. Recommend 5.1 k. 4. DC blocking capacitor. 5. PCS LNA Input Matching. Optimize for NF. 6. Determines trade off between IIP3 and Gain. Higher value inductor means lower gain and higher IIP3. 7. Cell/PCS LNA Input Matching for optimum IIP3. Low impedance path to ground at low frequency for optimum IIP3. 8. For cell and PCS mixer input matching.
N O T
9. PCS Interstage matching. As the value of the inductance is increased, the PCS mixer preamp gain will decrease and the IIP3 will increase and vice versa. 10. For optimum NF and input matching. As the value of the capacitance is increased, the NF will become worse. 11. To optimize performance over temperature and bias. 12. For output matching and a DC supply bias choke. 13. GPS mixer input matching for optimum IIP3. Low impedance path to ground at low frequency for optimum IIP3. 14. Input or Output matching. 15. Coupling of coils on the input, output, and emitter (where applicable) of any LNA should be minimized to reduce the risk of oscillation. We recommend separating the inductors and/or positioning them 90 o relative to each other.
NOTE: IF output matching component values are dependent on board layout, IF SAW filter and the IF frequency selected. Please contact RFMD application engineering for assistance with IF output matching.

PCB Design Requirements
PCB Surface Finish The PCB surface finish used for RFMD's qualification process is electroless nickel, immersion gold. Typical thickness is 3inch to 8inch gold over 180inch nickel. PCB Land Pattern Recommendation PCB land patterns are based on IPC-SM-782 standards when possible. The pad pattern shown has been developed and tested for optimized assembly at RFMD; however, it may require some modifications to address company specific assembly processes. The PCB land pattern has been developed to accommodate lead and package tolerances. PCB Metal Land Pattern

PCB Solder Mask Pattern Liquid Photo-Imageable (LPI) solder mask is recommended. The solder mask footprint will match what is shown for the PCB metal land pattern with a 2mil to 3mil expansion to accommodate solder mask registration clearance around all pads. The center-grounding pad shall also have a solder mask clearance. Expansion of the pads to create solder mask clearance can be provided in the master data or requested from the PCB fabrication supplier.
A = 0.74 x 0.38 (mm) Typ. B = 0.38 x 0.74 (mm) Typ. C = 3.60 (mm) Sq. 3.50 Typ. 0.50 Typ.
