Overview

  • Broadband RxVGA interfacing LNA and beamformer to RF-ADC
  • Operating frequency range: 0.38 GHz to 15 GHz, 2 product variants
    • ADL6332-A: 0.38 GHz to 8.0 GHz
    • ADL6332-B: 1.0 GHz to 15.0 GHz
  • Differential signal chain optimizes common mode rejection of RF ADC, even order harmonics and intermodulation
  • 50 Ω single-ended input and 50 Ω differential output
  • Integrated broadband RF input balun
  • 70 dB of gain control range in 1 dB step
  • RF DSA range: 24.0 dB with 1.0 dB step
  • Amplifier bypass loss of 12 dB each
  • Asynchronous toggle between multiple pre-defined attenuation values and bypass amplifier stages.
  • Power gain at 4 GHz: 15.0 dB (ADL6332-A), 15.7 dB (ADL6332-B)
  • Noise figure at 4 GHz: 8.5 dB (ADL6332-A), 8.5 dB (ADL6332-B)
  • OIP3 at 4GHz: 32.8 dBm(ADL6332-A), 30.9 dBm (ADL6332-B)
  • OIP2 at 4GHz: 59.6 dBm (ADL6332-A), 55.5 dBm (ADL6332-B)
  • OP1dB at 4GHz: 11.8 dBm (ADL6332-A), 12.6 dBm (ADL6332-B)
  • Fully programmable through a 3-wire/4-wire SPI
  • Single 3.3 V supply
  • 24-terminal, 4.0 mm x 4.0 mm LGA

The ADL6332 RxVGA provides an interface from LNA/beam former/ Rx front end to RF analog-to-digital converters (RF-ADC). Each ADL6332 IC is composed of a balun, two differential RF amplifiers with bypass attenuators, and a digital step attenuator (DSA) to provide suitable receiver performance in a 24-terminal, 4.0 mm x 4.0 mm LGA package.

Serial-port interface (SPI) control is available to configure RF signal path or to optimize supply current vs. performance.

An integrated RF balun is used to provide a single-ended input over 0.38 GHz to 8.0 GHz (ADL6332-A) or 1.0 GHz to 15.0 GHz (ADL6332-B) with good impedance match.
