13.1 Circuit description  
The SA604A is a very high gain, high frequency device. Correct operation is not possible  
if good RF layout and gain stage practices are not used. The SA604A cannot be  
evaluated independent of circuit, components, and board layout. A physical layout which  
correlates to the electrical limits is shown in Figure 17. This configuration can be used as  
the basis for production layout.  
The SA604A is an IF signal processing system suitable for IF frequencies as high as  
21.4 MHz. The device consists of two limiting amplifiers, quadrature detector, direct audio  
output, muted audio output, and signal strength indicator (with log output characteristic).  
The equivalent circuit is shown in Figure 4.  
Figure 7 is the performance of the typical cellular radio application shown in Figure 6 with  
45 MHz RF input and 455 kHz IF.

High-performance low-power FM IF system  
13.2 IF amplifiers  
The IF amplifier section consists of two log-limiting stages. The first consists of two  
differential amplifiers with 39 dB of gain and a small signal bandwidth of 41 MHz (when  
driven from a 50 source). The output of the first limiter is a low-impedance emitter  
follower with 1 kof equivalent series resistance. The second limiting stage consists of  
three differential amplifiers with a gain of 62 dB and a small signal AC bandwidth of  
28 MHz. The outputs of the final differential stage are buffered to the internal quadrature  
detector. One of the outputs is available at pin LIMITER_OUTPUT to drive an external  
quadrature capacitor and L/C quadrature tank.  
Both of the limiting amplifier stages are DC biased using feedback. The buffered output of  
the final differential amplifier is fed back to the input through 42 kresistors. As shown in  
Figure 4, the input impedance is established for each stage by tapping one of the  
feedback resistors 1.6 kfrom the input. It requires one additional decoupling capacitor  
from the tap point to ground.  
Because of the very high gain, bandwidth and input impedance of the limiters, there is a  
very real potential for instability at IF frequencies above 455 kHz. The basic phenomenon  
is shown in Figure 10. Distributed feedback (capacitance, inductance and radiated fields)  
forms a divider from the output of the limiters back to the inputs (including RF input). If this  
feedback divider does not cause attenuation greater than the gain of the forward path,  
then oscillation or low-level regeneration is likely. If regeneration occurs, two symptoms  
may be present:  
1. The RSSI output is high with no signal input (should nominally be 250 mV or lower).  
2. The demodulated output demonstrates a threshold. Above a certain input level, the  
limited signal begins to dominate the regeneration, and the demodulator begins to  
operate in a normal manner.  
There are three primary ways to deal with regeneration:  
1. Minimize the feedback by gain stage isolation.  
2. Lower the stage input impedances, thus increasing the feedback attenuation factor.  
3. Reduce the gain. Gain reduction can effectively be accomplished by adding  
attenuation between stages, which can also lower the input impedance. Examples of  
impedance/gain adjustment are shown in Figure 11. Reduced gain results in reduced  
limiting sensitivity.  
A feature of the SA604A IF amplifiers, which is not specified, is low phase shift. The  
SA604A is fabricated with a 10 GHz process with very small collector capacitance. It is  
advantageous in some applications that the phase shift changes only a few degrees over  
a wide range of signal input amplitudes.

13.3 Stability considerations  
The high gain and bandwidth of the SA604A in combination with its very low currents  
permit circuit implementation with superior performance. However, stability must be  
maintained and, to do that, every possible feedback mechanism must be addressed.  
These mechanisms are:  
supply lines and ground  
stray layout inductances and capacitances  
radiated fields  
phase shift  
As the system IF increases, so must the attention to fields and strays. However, ground  
and supply loops cannot be overlooked, especially at lower frequencies. Even at 455 kHz,  
if the supply line is not decoupled, using the test layout in Figure 17, instability occurs. To  
decouple, use two high-quality RF capacitors, a 0.1 F monolithic on the VCC pin, and a  
6.8 F tantalum on the supply line. An electrolytic is not an adequate substitute. At  
10.7 MHz, a 1 F tantalum has proven acceptable with this layout. Every layout must be  
evaluated on its own merit, but do not underestimate the importance of good supply  
bypass.  
At 455 kHz, if the layout of Figure 17 or one substantially similar is used, ceramic filters  
can be connected directly to the input and between limiter stages with no special  
consideration. At frequencies above 2 MHz, some input impedance reduction is usually  
necessary. Figure 11 demonstrates a practical means.  
As illustrated in Figure 12, 430 external resistors are applied in parallel to the internal  
1.6 kload resistors, thus presenting approximately 330 to the filters. The input filter is  
a crystal type for narrowband selectivity. The filter is terminated with a tank which  
transforms to 330 . The interstage filter is a ceramic type which does not contribute to  
system selectivity, but does suppress wideband noise and stray signal pickup. In  
wideband 10.7 MHz IFs the input filter can also be ceramic, directly connected to pin

SA604A  
NXP Semiconductors  
High-performance low-power FM IF system  
In some products, it may be impractical to utilize shielding, but this mechanism may be  
appropriate to 10.7 MHz and 21.4 MHz IF. One of the benefits of low current is lower  
radiated field strength, but lower does not mean non-existent. A spectrum analyzer with  
an active probe clearly shows IF energy with the probe held in the proximity of the second  
limiter output or quadrature coil. No specific recommendations are provided, but  
mechanical shielding should be considered if layout, bypass, and input impedance  
reduction do not solve a stubborn instability.  
The final stability consideration is phase shift. The phase shift of the limiters is very low,  
but there is phase shift contribution from the quadrature tank and the filters. Most filters  
demonstrate a large phase shift across their passband (especially at the edges). If the  
quadrature detector is tuned to the edge of the filter passband, the combined filter and  
quadrature phase shift can aggravate stability. It is not usually a problem, but should be  
kept in mind.  
13.4 Quadrature detector  
Figure 9 shows an equivalent circuit of the SA604A quadrature detector. It is a multiplier  
cell similar to a mixer stage. Instead of mixing two different frequencies, it mixes two  
signals of common frequency but different phase. Internal to the device, a constant  
amplitude (limited) signal is differentially applied to the lower port of the multiplier. The  
same signal is applied single-ended to an external capacitor at pin LIMITER_OUTPUT.  
There is a 90phase shift across the plates of this capacitor. The phase shifted signal  
applied to the upper port of the multiplier is at pin QUADRATURE_INPUT. A quadrature tank  
(parallel L/C network) permits frequency selective phase shifting at the IF frequency. This  
quadrature tank must be returned to ground through a DC blocking capacitor.  
The loaded Q of the quadrature tank impacts three fundamental aspects of the detector:  
distortion, maximum modulated peak deviation, and audio output amplitude. Typical  
quadrature curves are illustrated in Figure 5. The phase angle translates to a shift in the  
multiplier output voltage.  
Thus a small deviation gives a large output with a high Q tank. However, as the deviation  
from resonance increases, the non-linearity of the curve increases (distortion). With too  
much deviation, the signal is outside the quadrature region (limiting the peak deviation  
which can be demodulated). If the same peak deviation is applied to a lower Q tank, the  
deviation remains in a region of the curve which is more linear (less distortion). However,  
it creates a smaller phase angle (smaller output amplitude). Thus the Q of the quadrature  
tank must be tailored to the design. Basic equations and an example for determining Q  
are shown in Section 13.5. This explanation includes first-order effects only.

A more exact analysis including the source resistance of the previous stage shows a  
series and a parallel resonance in the phase detector tank. To make the parallel and  
series resonances close, and to get maximum attenuation of higher harmonics at  
455 kHz IF, a CS = 10 pF and CP = 164 pF provided the best results. For commercial  
purposes, values of 150 pF or 180 pF may be practical. A variable inductor which can be  
adjusted around 0.7 mH should be chosen and optimized for minimum distortion. (For  
10.7 MHz, a value of CS = 1 pF is recommended.)  
13.6 Audio outputs  
Two audio outputs are provided. Both are PNP current-to-voltage converters with 55 k  
nominal internal loads. The unmuted output is always active to permit the use of signaling  
tones in systems such as cellular radio. The other output can be muted with 70 dB typical  
attenuation. The two outputs have an internal 180phase difference.  
The nominal frequency response of the audio outputs is 300 kHz. This response can be  
increased with the addition of external resistors between the output pins and ground. The  
resistors are placed in parallel with the internal 55 kresistors and they lower the output  
time constant. The output structure is a current-to-voltage converter where current is  
driven into the resistance, creating a voltage drop. By adding external parallel resistance,  
it also lowers the output audio amplitude and DC level.  
This technique of audio bandwidth expansion can be effective in many applications such  
as SCA receivers and data transceivers. Because the two outputs have a 180phase  
relationship, FSK demodulation can be accomplished by applying the two outputs  
differentially across the inputs of an op amp or comparator. Once the threshold of the  
reference frequency (or no-signal condition) has been established, the two outputs shift in  
opposite directions (higher or lower output voltage) as the input frequency shifts. The

SA604A  
NXP Semiconductors  
High-performance low-power FM IF system  
output of the comparator is logic output. The choice of op amp or comparator depends on  
the data rate. With high IF frequency (10 MHz and above), and wide IF bandwidth (L/C  
filters) data rates in excess of 4 MBd are possible.  
13.7 RSSI  
The Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI), of the SA604A demonstrates monotonic  
logarithmic output over a range of 90 dB. The signal strength output is derived from the  
summed stage currents in the limiting amplifiers. It is independent of the IF frequency.  
Thus, unfiltered signals at the limiter inputs, spurious products, or regenerated signals  
manifest themselves as RSSI outputs. An RSSI output of greater than 250 mV with no  
signal (or a very small signal) applied, is an indication of possible regeneration or  
oscillation.  
To achieve optimum RSSI linearity, there must be a 12 dB insertion loss between the first  
and second limiting amplifiers. With a typical 455 kHz ceramic filter, there is a nominal  
4 dB insertion loss in the filter. An additional 6 dB is lost in the interface between the filter  
and the input of the second limiter. A small amount of additional loss must be introduced  
with a typical ceramic filter. In the test circuit used for cellular radio applications (Figure 6),  
the optimum linearity was achieved with a 5.1 kresistor. The resistor was placed  
between the output of the first limiter (pin IF_AMP_OUTPUT) and the input of the  
interstage filter. With this resistor from pin IF_AMP_OUTPUT to the filter, sensitivity of  
0.25 V for 12 dB SINAD was achieved. With the 3.6 kresistor, sensitivity was  
optimized at 0.22 V for 12 dB SINAD with minor change in the RSSI linearity.  
Any application requiring optimized RSSI linearity, such as spectrum analyzers, cellular  
radio, and certain types of telemetry, requires careful attention to limiter interstage  
component selection. This is especially true with high IF frequencies which require  
insertion loss or impedance reduction for stability.  
At low frequencies, the RSSI makes an excellent logarithmic AC voltmeter.  
For data applications, the RSSI is effective as an Amplitude Shift Keyed (ASK) data slicer.  
If a comparator is applied to the RSSI and the threshold set slightly above the no signal  
level, when an in-band signal is received the comparator is sliced. Unlike FSK  
demodulation, the maximum data rate is limited. An internal capacitor limits the RSSI  
frequency response to approximately 100 kHz. At high data rates, the rise and fall times  
are not symmetrical.  
The RSSI output is a current-to-voltage converter similar to the audio outputs. However,  
an external resistor is required. With a 91 kresistor, the output characteristic is 0.5 V for  
a 10 dB change in the input amplitude.  
13.8 Additional circuitry  
Internal to the SA604A are voltage and current regulators which have been temperature  
compensated to maintain the performance of the device over a wide temperature range.  
These regulators are not accessible to the user.

16. Soldering of SMD packages  
This text provides a very brief insight into a complex technology. A more in-depth account  
of soldering ICs can be found in Application Note AN10365 “Surface mount reflow  
soldering description”.  
16.1 Introduction to soldering  
Soldering is one of the most common methods through which packages are attached to  
Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs), to form electrical circuits. The soldered joint provides both  
the mechanical and the electrical connection. There is no single soldering method that is  
ideal for all IC packages. Wave soldering is often preferred when through-hole and  
Surface Mount Devices (SMDs) are mixed on one printed wiring board; however, it is not  
suitable for fine pitch SMDs. Reflow soldering is ideal for the small pitches and high  
densities that come with increased miniaturization.  
16.2 Wave and reflow soldering  
Wave soldering is a joining technology in which the joints are made by solder coming from  
a standing wave of liquid solder. The wave soldering process is suitable for the following:  
Through-hole components  
Leaded or leadless SMDs, which are glued to the surface of the printed circuit board  
Not all SMDs can be wave soldered. Packages with solder balls, and some leadless  
packages which have solder lands underneath the body, cannot be wave soldered. Also,  
leaded SMDs with leads having a pitch smaller than ~0.6 mm cannot be wave soldered,  
due to an increased probability of bridging.  
The reflow soldering process involves applying solder paste to a board, followed by  
component placement and exposure to a temperature profile. Leaded packages,  
packages with solder balls, and leadless packages are all reflow solderable.  
Key characteristics in both wave and reflow soldering are:  
Board specifications, including the board finish, solder masks and vias  
Package footprints, including solder thieves and orientation  
The moisture sensitivity level of the packages  
Package placement  
Inspection and repair  
Lead-free soldering versus SnPb soldering  
16.3 Wave soldering  
Key characteristics in wave soldering are:  
Process issues, such as application of adhesive and flux, clinching of leads, board  
transport, the solder wave parameters, and the time during which components are  
exposed to the wave  
Solder bath specifications, including temperature and impurities

16.4 Reflow soldering  
Key characteristics in reflow soldering are:  
Lead-free versus SnPb soldering; note that a lead-free reflow process usually leads to  
higher minimum peak temperatures (see Figure 20) than a SnPb process, thus  
reducing the process window  
Solder paste printing issues including smearing, release, and adjusting the process  
window for a mix of large and small components on one board  
Reflow temperature profile; this profile includes preheat, reflow (in which the board is  
heated to the peak temperature) and cooling down. It is imperative that the peak  
temperature is high enough for the solder to make reliable solder joints (a solder paste  
characteristic). In addition, the peak temperature must be low enough that the  
packages and/or boards are not damaged. The peak temperature of the package  
depends on package thickness and volume and is classified in accordance with  
Table 9 and 10

Moisture sensitivity precautions, as indicated on the packing, must be respected at all  
times.  
Studies have shown that small packages reach higher temperatures during reflow  
soldering, see Figure 20.
