MAX2754EUA+

Overview

The MAX2754EUA+ is a monolithic voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) designed for Bluetooth applications operating in the 2.4 GHz to 2.5 GHz frequency range. It features a linear modulation input, supporting direct frequency modulation capabilities. The device operates on a single supply voltage and delivers an output power of -3 dBm with a secondary harmonic suppression of -30 dBc. It draws a current of 15.2 mA and provides a tuning sensitivity of 1.3 MHz/V. The component is housed in an 8-pin uMAX package.

Feature Summary

• Integrates a voltage-controlled oscillator with a dedicated linear modulation input for direct FM capability.
• Designed specifically for Bluetooth transceiver applications within the 2.4 GHz ISM band.
• Provides stable RF output with specified harmonic suppression characteristics.

Applications

• Bluetooth wireless communication modules
• 2.4 GHz ISM band transceivers
• Direct frequency modulation signal generation

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix and package type against the manufacturer's official datasheet to ensure compatibility with design requirements. Confirm RoHS compliance status and lead times through authorized distributors, as availability may vary by region. Ensure proper handling procedures are followed for surface-mount components.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact VCO with integrated linear modulation is required for Bluetooth systems. Consider the 8-pin uMAX package size for space-constrained layouts. Evaluate the -3 dBm output power and 15.2 mA current consumption against system power budgets and antenna requirements.

Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX275x series of RF oscillators from Analog Devices/Maxim Integrated. It complements other models like the MAX2750 and MAX2752, which offer similar VCO functions but may differ in frequency ranges or modulation inputs. The series targets low-cost, high-performance wireless solutions.

Replacement Considerations

The MAX2750EUA+ is a related model within the same family. Verify if the MAX2750 meets the specific 2.4-2.5 GHz requirement and modulation needs before substitution, as pinouts and electrical parameters may differ slightly.
