RFFC2072ATR13

Overview

The RFFC2072ATR13 is a reconfigurable frequency conversion device integrating a fractional-N PLL synthesizer, VCO, and high-linearity mixer. It generates LO signals from 85MHz to 2700MHz for up/down-converting RF signals between 30MHz and 2700MHz. Key parameters include -2dB conversion gain, +23dBm IIP3, and 125mA current consumption. The device operates on 2.7V to 3.3V power supplies within a -40°C to +85°C temperature range, housed in a 5x5mm QFN-32 package.

Feature Summary

• Integrates fractional-N PLL with sigma-delta modulation for ultra-fine step sizes and low spurs
• Features a fully integrated low phase noise VCO and buffered LO output
• Includes a high-linearity RF mixer with adjustable bias current for power optimization
• Supports multi-device control via a common serial bus without individual chip select lines

Applications

• Wireless infrastructure base stations
• Point-to-point microwave radio systems
• Software-defined radio platforms
• Test and measurement equipment

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'TR13' against official Qorvo documentation to confirm tape-and-reel packaging specifications. Ensure compatibility with the DKFC2072A evaluation kit if development support is required. Confirm RoHS compliance status through the manufacturer's latest certification documents prior to procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring wideband frequency synthesis combined with direct frequency conversion. The integrated architecture reduces external component count compared to discrete solutions. Consider the programmable mixer bias for balancing linearity requirements against total system power consumption constraints.

Part Context

This part belongs to the RFFC2071/2072 series of wireless and RF integrated circuits manufactured by Qorvo. These devices are designed for high-performance signal processing tasks. The RFFC2072 variant specifically targets broader frequency ranges compared to related models like the RFFC2071.

Replacement Considerations

The RFFC2071TR13 serves as a functional substitute within the same family, offering similar integration but potentially differing frequency coverage or pinout configurations. Verify electrical parameter alignment before substitution.
