as well as an output matching network for optimum per-
formance. See Typical Operating Circuit for recommend-
ed component values. See Tables 4 and 5 for IFOUT
port S-parameters.
Bias Circuitry
The linearity and supply current of the MAX2683/
MAX2684 are externally programmable with a single
resistor, R
BIAS
, from BIAS to GND. A nominal resistor
value of 1.2kΩ will set an IIP3 of +9dBm and a supply
current of 55mA. Decreasing the resistor value
improves linearity at the cost of increased supply cur-
rent. Increasing the resistor value decreases supply
current while degrading linearity. Use resistor values in
the range of 820kΩ to 2kΩ.

Applications Information
Layout Considerations
A properly designed PC board is an essential part of
any RF/microwave circuit. Keep RF signal lines as short
as possible to reduce losses, radiation, and induc-
tance. Use separate, low-inductance vias to the ground
plane for each ground pin. For best performance, sol-
der the exposed pad on the bottom of the device pack-
age evenly to the board ground plane.
Power-Supply and
ENX2
Bypassing
Proper voltage-supply bypassing is essential for high-
frequency circuit stability. Bypass V
CC
with a 10µF
capacitor in parallel with a 100pF capacitor located as
close to the V
CC
pin as possible.
Bypass ENX2 with a 100pF capacitor to ground to mini-
mize noise injected into the LO doubler cell. Use a
series resistor (typically 1.2kΩ) to further reduce cou-
pling of high-frequency signals into the ENX2 pin.
