MAX2720/MAX2721 Evaluation Kits
General Description
The MAX2720/MAX2721 evaluation kits (EV kits) simplify evaluation of the MAX2720/MAX2721 direct I/Q modulator with variable gain amplifier (VGA) and power amplifier (PA) driver. The MAX2720 is optimized for RF frequenc i e s between 1700MHz and 2100MHz, while the M A X 2 7 2 1 is optimized for RF frequencies between 2100MHz and 2500MHz. The EV kits are fully assembled and tested, allowing simple evaluation of all device functions. All signal ports utilize SMA connectors, providing a convenient interface to RF test equipment. o Easy MAX2720/MAX2721 Evaluation o All Critical Peripheral Components Included o SMA Input and Output Signal Connectors o RF Ports Matched to 1900MHz (MAX2720) o RF Ports Matched to 2315MHz (MAX2721) o Fully Assembled and Tested

· (Optional) A second power supply for varying the gain of the modulator
I/Q Modulator Connections and Setup
1) DC Power Supply: Set the power-supply voltage to +3V, and connect it to VCC and GND on the EV kit. If desired, place an ammeter in series with the power supply to measure supply current and a voltmeter in parallel with VCC and GND to measure the supply voltage delivered to the EV kit. Short jumper JU4 to VCC to enable the device. Short jumper JU6 to allow the potentiometer to vary the modulator gain; turn the p o t e n t i o m e t e r until V PC = 2.5V. If desired, open jumper JU6 and connect to an additional voltage supply to control the modulator gain. 2) L O Signal Source: T h e MAX2720/MAX2721 LO port can be driven at full or half frequency. Connect jumper JU5 (X2 ENB) to GND to enable the internal LO frequency doubler, allowing the external LO signal source to operate at half frequency. Set the LO s i g n a l source operating frequency to 950MHz (MAX2720) or 1157.5MHz (MAX2721) at an output power of -13dBm. Connect jumper JU5 (X2 ENB) to VCC to disable the internal LO frequency doubler, and run the external LO source at the fundamental frequency. Set the LO signal source frequency to 1900MHz (MAX2720) or 2315MHz (MAX2721) at an output power of -13dBm. Connect the LO signal generator to the LO port SMA connector using a 50 SMA cable. 3) I/Q Signal Source: Configure the dual-output function generator for a 500kHz IF frequency, with a 300mVp-p amplitude and a 90° phase difference between channels. Connect a 50 cable from the I/Q signal source to the EV kit's I+ and Q+ inputs. The EV kit inputs are terminated with a 50 resistor shunted to ground and a 1k resistor in series with
