4 1 Features IQ receiver for 24-GHz ISM band Suited for UWB applications between 23 GHz and 29 GHz Single supply voltage of 2.5 V Low power consumption of 30 mw Receiver with homodyne quadrature mixer Low-noise amplifier (LNA) with gain control Fast power-down mode Fully ESD protected device QFN16 leadless plastic package 3 mm 3 mm Pb-free, RoHS compliant package IC is available as bare die as well 1.1 Overview The RXˍ024ˍ004 is an integrated IQ receiver circuit for the 24-GHz ISM band in the frequency range 24.0 GHz GHz and for UWB applications between 23 GHz and 29 GHz. It includes a low-noise-amplifier with gain control, quadrature mixers, a poly-phase filter and a local oscillator input buffer. The receiver is powered down if the PWR pin is supplied with 0 V. The gain of the receiver can be digitally controlled by the Vctrl pin. Vctrl = 2.5 V sets the receiver in high gain mode, Vctrl = 0 sets the receiver in low gain mode. The IC is fabricated in the SiGe:C BiCMOS technology SG25H3 of IHP GmbH. 1.2 Applications The main use of the RX receiver IC is in wireless communication systems and in radar systems for the ISM band from 24.0 GHz to GHz and for UWB applications between 23 GHz and 29 GHz

It is important that the voltage applied to the input pins should never exceed V CC by more than 0.3 V. Otherwise, the supply current may be conducted through the upper ESD protection diode connected at the pin. Figure 8 Equivalent I / O Circuits
