CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION  
General  
The MC13142 is a low power LNA, double–balanced  
(MSG) yields noise performance within a few tenths of a dB  
of the minimum noise figure.  
Mixer, and VCO. This device is designated for use as the  
frontend section in analog and digital FM systems such as  
Digital European Cordless Telephone (DECT), PHS, PCS,  
Cellular, UHF and 800 MHz Special Mobile Radio (SMR),  
UHF Family Radio Services and 902 to 928 MHz cordless  
telephones. It features a mixer linearity control to preset or  
auto program the mixer dynamic range, an enable function  
and a wideband IF so the IC may be used either as a down  
converter or an up converter. Further details are covered in  
the Pin by Pin Description which shows the equivalent  
internal circuit and external circuit requirements.  
Mixer  
The mixer is a double–balanced four quadrant multiplier  
biased class AB allowing for programmable linearity control  
via an external current source. An input third order intercept  
point of 20 dBm may be achieved. All 3 ports of the mixer are  
designed to work up to 1.8 GHz. The mixer has a 50 Ω  
single–ended RF input and open collector differential IF  
outputs. An on–board Local Oscillator transistor has the  
emitter, base and collector pinned out to implement a low  
phase noise VCO in various configurations. Additionally, a  
buffered LO output is provided for operation with a frequency  
synthesizer. The linear gain of the mixer is approximately  
0 dB with a SSB noise figure of 12 dB in the IF output circuit  
configuration shown in the application example.  
Current Regulation/Enable  
Temperature compensating voltage independent current  
regulators are controlled by the enable function in which  
“high” powers up the IC.  
Local Oscillator  
Low Noise Amplifier (LNA)  
The on–chip transistor operates with coaxial transmission  
line or LC resonant elements to over 2.0 GHz. Biasing is  
done with a temperature compensated current source in the  
emitter and a collector to base internal resistor of 7.6 k;  
The LNA is internally biased at low supply current  
(approximately 2.0 mA emitter current) for optimal noise  
figure and gain. The LNA output is biased internally with a

NOTES: The PCB is laidout for the 4DFA (2 pole SMD type) and 4DFB (3 pole SMD type) filters which are available for applications in  
cellular and GSM,GPS (1.2–1.5 GHz), DECT, PHS and PCS (1.8–2.0 GHz) and ISM Bands (902–928 MHz and 2.4–2.5 GHz).  
In the component placement shown above, the 926.5 MHz dielectric type image filter is used (Toko Part # 4DFA–926A10).  
The PCB also accommodates a surface mount SAW filter in an eight or six pin ceramic package for the cellular base and  
handset frequencies. Recommended manufacturers are Siemens and Murata.  
Traces are provided on the PCB to evaluate the LNA and mixer separately. The component placement view shows external  
circuit components used for the 926.5 MHz application circuit. Note: some traces must be cut to accommodate placement of  
components; likewise some traces must be shorted. The voltage controlled oscillator is shown with the varactor referenced to  
V
ground. The PCB is modified as shown to do this.  
EE  
16:1 broadband impedance transformer is mini circuits part #TX16–R3T; it is in the leadless surface mount “TX” package.  
Components L and C comprise a low pass filter used to provide narrowband matching at a given IF frequency. For example at  
49 MHz C = 36 p and L = 330 nH.  
The microstrip trace on the ground side of the PCB is intended for a microstrip resonator; it is cut free when using a lump  
inductor as done above.

represents the application circuit. In the cascaded noise  
analysis the system noise equation is:  
Fsystem = F1 + [(F2 –1)/G1] + [(F3–1)]/[(G1)(G2)]  
where:  
It is desirable to use a RF ceramic or SAW filter before the  
mixer to provide image frequency rejection. The filter is  
selected based on cost, size and performance tradeoffs.  
Typical RF filters have 3.0 to 5.0 dB insertion loss. The PC  
board layout accommodates both ceramic and SAW RF  
filters which are offered by various suppliers such as  
Siemens, Toko and Murata.  
Interface matching between the LNA, RF filter and the  
mixer will be required. The interface matching networks  
shown in the application circuit are designed for 50 Ω  
interfaces.  
F1 = the Noise Factor of the MC13142 LNA  
G1 = the Gain of the LNA  
F2 = the Noise factor of the RF Ceramic Filter  
G2 = the Gain of the Ceramic Filter

Note: the above terms are defined as linear relationships and  
are related to the log form for gain and noise figure by the  
following:

and 1.8 dB noise figure is typical at 926 MHz. The mixer  
measures 0 dB gain and 12 dB noise figure as shown in the  
application circuit. Typical insertion loss of the Toko ceramic  
filter is 3.0 dB. Thus, the overall gain of the frontend receiver  
is 14 dB with a 3.3 dB noise figure.  
Calculating in terms of gain and noise factor yields the  
following:  
F1 = 1.51; G1 = 50.11  
F2 = 1.99; G2 = 0.5  
F3 = 15.85

1.9 GHz FRONT–END FOR WIRELESS SYSTEMS  
This application is applicable to both Analog and Digital  
systems. With the correct VCO tuning and the appropriate  
filter, it will do the front–end for DECT, PHS or PCS. The  
MC13142D is available in a SOIC 16 pin package. The part  
requires minimal external components, leading to a low cost  
system. A circuit board layout with a circuit diagram to  
evaluate the IC is shown. Except for the PLL control, all the  
wireless systems front–ends will look the same and have the  
same basic performance characteristic as the test circuit.  
centering the tuning range, adjustment is accomplished by  
moving the loop toward or away from some conductive  
surface such as a ground plane.  
The dielectric filter is referenced to the dc supply which  
lessen the parts count and adds distributive capacity for high  
frequency bypassing. DC feed to the LNA is through a low  
value resistor (220 to 330 ) tapped at the filter input, so as not  
to load the circuit unnecessarily. There is a small voltage drop  
across the resistor, as well as some signal loss. The signal  
loss is about 0.73 dB for a 220 resistor and less for larger  
values. If one can not afford the voltage drop, an inductor  
could replace the resistor at a somewhat increased cost.  
Circuit Operation:  
LNA Input/Output  
An LC filter is incorporated before the LNA to provide  
some selectivity. In addition to selectivity, its other function is  
to match the antenna impedance (50 ) to the LNA input for  
best gain and sensitivity (low noise figure). The network  
reflects about a 200 source impedance to the device.  
The output circuit is a pie network consisting of; the LNA  
output capacity, the inductance (the bond wire, package pin  
and L2), and the input capacity of the dielectric filter, along  
with some added shunt. A 2.4 pF with Toko 4DFA 2 pole filter.  
The 2.4 pF is for matching the in–band filter impedance to the  
LNA output and has little effect on tuning.  
Mixer  
Looking from the dielectric filter’s output, the Mixer input is  
50 in series with an inductor. This inductor consists of the  
printed circuit run, the package pin and bond wire, all in  
series. It is modified, to some extent, by the package pin  
distributive capacity, but overall at the bandpass frequency  
remains inductive. Matching the filter impedance to the Mixer  
input only requires a capacitor with a value that, when placed  
in series, will resonate with this inductor at the filter bandpass  
frequency.  
The single–ended input signal is converted internally into  
balanced current signals. The two signals drive the two low  
impedance inputs (emitters) of a Gilbert Cell. They appear as  
Both networks are tuned to band center by adjusting L1  
and L2. L1 and L2, as well as L3, are short length of wire  
formed in a half loop. Once the correct length is determined in

current sources to the Cell and can be programmed (via  
In this application, the VCO is not required to cover a large  
tuning range. Limiting the tuning range to no more than is  
required to cover the band (making allowance for  
temperature and aging effects) will result in a VCO less  
susceptible to on board noise sources. To assure oscillation  
while controlling the tuning range the varactor (plus series  
capacitor) minimum capacity is chosen to be about equal to  
the capacity from Pin 5 (transistor base) to RF ground. The  
maximum tuning ratio could be no greater than 1.41 because  
the circuit capacity could only double whatever the upper  
value capacity the varactor attained. An upper limit on the  
varactor capacity along with the effects of the series  
capacitor reduces the VCO tuning range to about 1.2 times.  
The varactors chosen for the test fixtures were Loral KV2111.  
The VCO buffer, as most emitter follower circuits, has the  
potential of generating a parasitic oscillation. When a  
collector is RF bypassed, a tuned LC circuit is formed  
consisting of the bypass capacitor, bond wire plus package  
pin inductance and the device effective output capacity. If the  
base is low impedance, there is normally enough distributive  
collector to emitter capacity for the device to oscillate in the  
common base mode. A simple fix without affecting the buffer  
otherwise, is to place a small value series resistor in the  
collector lead. This will lower the Q of the circuit where it  
cannot sustain oscillations. Without the series resistor at Pin 8  
or some other damping element, the buffer will oscillate.  
Pin 15) for more current. The current is often adjusted for  
minimum third order response. In this Fixture it is fixed biased  
for most conversion gain.  
The Mixer circuit is balanced where both oscillator and RF  
are suppressed. This provides IF signals at Pins 9 and 10  
which are equal in amplitude and 180 degrees out of phase.  
To realize a positive gain one needs to reflect a higher  
impedance from the load impedance (50 for this fixture) to  
the Mixer output or outputs. Maximum signal transfer would  
require a balance to unbalance network. Center tapped  
tuned transformers can perform this function but are quite  
expensive. If one can afford 3.0 dB less signal, a simple LC  
circuit at one of the outputs will work well. The other output is  
unused and bypassed to ground.  
The most gain is realized when no shunt capacity is added  
and L4 is selected to resonate with the terminal capacity.  
Adding shunt capacity will lower the gain and increase the  
circuit’s bandwidth. A small value series capacitor C4 to the  
50 output will control the reflected impedance and  
complete the circuit. L4 and C4 will vary in value depending  
on the IF frequency.  
VCO  
The base of the device is the source for driving both the  
Gilbert cell and prescaler buffer stages. Because of this, the  
oscillator device will operate and drive the Mixer only in the  
grounded collector configuration. Additional dc bias is added  
through a 1.3 kresistor (tapped for minimum VCO loading)  
to reduce the off–set between base and supply.  
The external circuit is a modified Colpitts where the  
capacitance between base and emitter (Pins 4 and 5), along  
with a capacitor from emitter to ac ground, forms the circuit  
capacity and the feedback that sustains oscillations. The  
effective circuit inductance (looking from the top of the circuit,  
the transistor base) consist of L3 in series with varactor diode  
D1 and a blocking capacitor. This circuit must appear  
inductive for the VCO to operate properly. If the capacity is  
too small, the feedback ratio is reduced and the VCO can  
cease oscillating. When it becomes to large, it will not vary  
the frequency due to the limiting effect of the series loop  
capacitance.  
PLL  
A phase lock loop is added to the test board to evaluate  
the VCO. The MC12179 multiplies the crystal reference  
frequency by 256 to obtain lock. In a frequency agile system,  
the MC12210 would control the VCO and its reference  
derived from a crystal. The crystal frequency would be  
selected to coincide with the required VCO frequencies and  
channels spacing requirements.  
Expected Performance  
As stated earlier, the MC13142 performance in any of the  
systems should mirror the performance obtained in the test  
fixture. Fixture power gains of 15 dBm and noise figures of  
5.5 dB are typical. The Mixer current can be varied to  
enhances battery life as well as alter its output characteristic  
for peak performance of a desired or undesired response.
