MAX9994ETP-T

RF Mixers Overview

The MAX9994ETP-T is a silicon-germanium (SiGe) up/down converter designed for downconversion mixer applications within the 1700MHz to 2200MHz frequency range. It operates on a single 5V supply voltage, with a maximum rating of 5.25V and a minimum of 4.75V. The device provides a gain of 9.2 dB and dissipates up to 1.8W of power. It is housed in a TQFN-20 EP package and supports an operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C. This component is part of the MAX9994 series.

RF Mixers Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized channels as this part number is listed as obsolete or discontinued by the manufacturer. Check current distributor availability carefully, as stock may be limited or subject to specific factory orders. Ensure the TQFN-20 EP package matches your PCB footprint requirements before finalizing procurement decisions.

RF Mixers Selection Notes

Select this component when a dedicated downconversion mixer is required for frequencies between 1.7GHz and 2.2GHz. Consider the 9.2dB gain and 9.7dB typical noise figure for signal integrity needs. The single 5V supply requirement simplifies power design compared to dual-supply alternatives. Verify thermal management capabilities due to the 1.8W power dissipation specification in the TQFN-20 EP package.

RF Mixers Part Context

This device belongs to the MAX9994 series of up/down converters manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. It is categorized under Wireless & RF Integrated Circuits. The ETP suffix indicates the specific tape-and-reel packaging variant. It shares the core functional architecture of the series but is distinguished by its specific frequency coverage and mixer configuration.

RF Mixers Replacement Considerations

The MAX9994ETP+T is a related variant within the same series. However, verify if the '+' suffix denotes lead-free compliance or other minor differences that affect compatibility. No direct public substitute part numbers are confirmed for immediate replacement.
