Complete Direct-Conversion L-Band Tuner
MAX21
General Description
Features
o 925MHz to 2175MHz Frequency Range
o Monolithic VCO
The MAX2121 low-cost, direct-conversion tuner IC is
designed for satellite set-top and VSAT applications.
Low Phase Noise: -97dBc/Hz at 10kHz
The device directly converts the satellite signals from
the LNB to baseband using a broadband I/Q downcon-
verter. The operating frequency range extends from
925MHz to 2175MHz.
No Calibration Required
o High Dynamic Range: -75dBm to 0dBm
o Integrated LP Filters: 123.75MHz
o Single +3.3V 5ꢀ Suꢁꢁly
The device includes an LNA and an RF variable-gain
amplifier, I and Q downconverting mixers, and base-
band lowpass filters and digitally controlled baseband
variable-gain amplifiers. Together, the RF and base-
band variable-gain amplifiers provide more than 80dB
of gain control range.
o Low-Power Standby Mode
o Address Pin for Multituner Aꢁꢁlications
o Differential I/Q Interface
2
o I C 2-Wire Serial Interface
The device includes fully monolithic VCOs, as well as a
complete fractional-N frequency synthesizer.
Additionally, an on-chip crystal oscillator is provided
along with a buffered output for driving additional tuners
and demodulators. Synthesizer programming and device
configuration are accomplished with a 2-wire serial inter-
face. The IC features a VCO autoselect (VAS) function
that automatically selects the proper VCO. For multituner
applications, the device can be configured to have one
of two 2-wire interface addresses. A low-power standby
mode is available whereupon the signal path is shut
down while leaving the reference oscillator, digital inter-
face, and buffer circuits active, providing a method to
reduce power in single and multituner applications.

The device is the most advanced broadband/VSAT
DBS tuner available. The low noise figure eliminates the
need for an external LNA. A small number of passive
components are needed to form a complete broadband
satellite tuner DVB-S2 RF front-end solution. The tuner
is available in a very small, 5mm x 5mm, 28-pin thin
QFN package.

MAX21
Slave Address
The MAX2121 has a 7-bit slave address that must be
sent to the device following a START condition to initi-
ate communication. The slave address is internally pro-
grammed to 1100000. The eighth bit (R/W) following
the 7-bit address determines whether a read or write
operation occurs.
2-Wire Serial Interface
2
The MAX2121 uses a 2-wire I C-compatible serial inter-
face consisting of a serial-data line (SDA) and a serial-
clock line (SCL). SDA and SCL facilitate bidirectional
communication between the MAX2121 and the master
at clock frequencies up to 400kHz. The master initiates
a data transfer on the bus and generates the SCL sig-
nal to permit data transfer. The MAX2121 behaves as a
slave device that transfers and receives data to and
from the master. SDA and SCL must be pulled high
with external pullup resistors (1kΩ or greater) for proper
bus operation. Pullup resistors should be referenced to
The MAX2121 continuously awaits a START condition
followed by its slave address. When the device recog-
nizes its slave address, it acknowledges by pulling the
SDA line low for one clock period; it is ready to accept
or send data depending on the R/W bit (Figure 1).

The write/read address is C0/C1 if ADDR pin is con-
nected to ground. The write/read address is C2/C3 if
One bit is transferred during each SCL clock cycle. A
minimum of nine clock cycles is required to transfer a
byte in or out of the MAX2121 (8 bits and an ACK/NACK).
The data on SDA must remain stable during the high
period of the SCL clock pulse. Changes in SDA while
SCL is high and stable are considered control signals
(see the START and STOP Conditions section). Both SDA
and SCL remain high when the bus is not busy.

on SDA while SCL is high.

Write Cycle
When addressed with a write command, the MAX2121
allows the master to write to a single register or to multi-
ple successive registers.
Acknowledge and Not-Acknowledge Conditions
Data transfers are framed with an acknowledge bit
(ACK) or a not-acknowledge bit (NACK). Both the mas-
ter and the MAX2121 (slave) generate acknowledge
bits. To generate an acknowledge, the receiving device
must pull SDA low before the rising edge of the
acknowledge-related clock pulse (ninth pulse) and
keep it low during the high period of the clock pulse.
A write cycle begins with the bus master issuing a
START condition followed by the seven slave address
bits and a write bit (R/W = 0). The MAX2121 issues an
ACK if the slave address byte is successfully received.
The bus master must then send to the slave the address
of the first register it wishes to write to (see Table 1 for
register addresses). If the slave acknowledges the
address, the master can then write one byte to the regis-
ter at the specified address. Data is written beginning
with the most significant bit. The MAX2121 again issues
an ACK if the data is successfully written to the register.
The master can continue to write data to the successive
internal registers with the MAX2121 acknowledging each
successful transfer, or it can terminate transmission by
issuing a STOP condition. The write cycle does not termi-
nate until the master issues a STOP condition.
To generate a not-acknowledge condition, the receiver
allows SDA to be pulled high before the rising edge of
the acknowledge-related clock pulse, and leaves SDA
high during the high period of the clock pulse.
Monitoring the acknowledge bits allows for detection of
unsuccessful data transfers. An unsuccessful data
transfer happens if a receiving device is busy or if a
system fault has occurred. In the event of an unsuc-
cessful data transfer, the bus master must reattempt
communication at a later time.

A read cycle begins with the bus master issuing a
START condition followed by the seven slave address
bits and a write bit (R/W = 0). The MAX2121 issues an
ACK if the slave address byte is successfully received.
The bus master must then send the address of the first
register it wishes to read (see Table 1 for register
addresses). The slave acknowledges the address.
Then, a START condition is issued by the master, fol-
lowed by the seven slave address bits and a read bit
(R/W = 1). The MAX2121 issues an ACK if the slave
address byte is successfully received. The MAX2121
starts sending data MSB first with each SCL clock
cycle. At the 9th clock cycle, the master can issue an
ACK and continue to read successive registers, or the
master can terminate the transmission by issuing a
NACK. The read cycle does not terminate until the mas-
ter issues a STOP condition.

Baseband Lowpass Filter
The MAX2121 includes an on-chip 5th-order Butterworth
filter with 1st-order group delay compensation.
DC Offset Cancellation
The DC offset cancellation is required to maintain the
I/Q output dynamic range. Connecting an external
capacitor between IDC+ and IDC- forms a highpass fil-
ter for the I channel and an external capacitor between
QDC+ and QDC- forms a highpass filter for the Q chan-
nel. Keep the value of the external capacitor less than
47nF to form a typical highpass corner of 250Hz.
XTAL Oscillator
The MAX2121 contains an internal reference oscillator,
reference output divider, and output buffer. All that is
required is to connect a crystal through a series 1nF
capacitor. To minimize parasitics, place the crystal and
series capacitor as close as possible to pin 14 (XTAL).
See Table 16 for crystal (XTAL) ESR (equivalent series
resistance) requirements.
Figure 3 illustrates an example in which registers 0, 1,
and 2 are read back.
Application Information
The MAX2121 downconverts RF signals in the 925MHz
to 2175MHz range directly to the baseband I/Q signals.
RF Input
Programming the Fractional
N- Synthesizer
The MAX2121 utilizes a fractional-N type synthesizer for
LO frequency programming. To program the frequency
synthesizer, the N and F values are encoded as
straight binary numbers. Determination of these values
is illustrated by the following example:
The RF input of the MAX2121 is internally matched to
75Ω. Only a DC-blocking capacitor is needed. See the
Typical Application Circuit.
RF Gain Control
The MAX2121 features a variable-gain low-noise ampli-
fier providing 73dB of RF gain range. The voltage con-
trol (VGC) range is 0.5V (minimum attenuation) to 2.7V
(maximum attenuation).

Note: When changing LO frequencies, all the divider
registers (integer and fractional) must be programmed
to activate the VAS function regardless of whether indi-
vidual registers are changed.
Table 17 summarizes the ADC output bits and the VCO
lock indication. The VCO autoselect routine only selects
a VCO in the “VAS locked” range. This allows room for
a VCO to drift over temperature and remain in a valid
“locked” range.
VCO Autoselect (VAS)
The MAX2121 includes 24 VCOs. The local oscillator
frequency can be manually selected by programming
the VCO[4:0] bits in the VCO register. The selected VCO
is reported in the Status Byte-2 register (see Table 15).
The ADC must first be enabled by setting the ADE bit in
the VCO register. The ADC reading is latched by a sub-
sequent programming of the ADC latch bit (ADL = 1).
The ADC value is reported in the Status Byte-2 register
(see Table 15).
Alternatively, the MAX2121 can be set to autonomously
choose a VCO by setting the VAS bit in the VCO regis-
ter to logic-high. The VAS routine is initiated once the
F-Divider LSB register word (register 5) is loaded.
Standby Mode
The MAX2121 features normal operating mode and
standby mode using the I C interface. Setting a logic-
high to the STBY bit in the Control register puts the
device into standby mode, during which only the 2-
wire-compatible bus, the crystal oscillator, the XTAL
buffer, and the XTAL buffer divider are active.
Thus it is important to write register 5 after any of the
following PLL related bits have been changed:
2
N-Divider bits (registers 1 and/or 2)
F-Divider bits (registers 3 and/or 4)
Reference Divider bits (register 6)
D24, CPS, or ICP bits (register 7)
In all cases, register settings loaded prior to entering
shutdown are saved upon transition back to active
mode. Default register values are provided for the
user’s convenience only. It is the user’s responsibility to
load all the registers no sooner than 100µs after the
device is powered up.
This will ensure all intended bits have been pro-
grammed before the VAS is initiated and the PLL is
locked. The VCO value programmed in the VCO[4:0]
register serves as the starting point for the automatic
VCO selection process.
Layout Considerations
The MAX2121 EV kit serves as a guide for PCB layout.
Keep RF signal lines as short as possible to minimize
losses and radiation. Use controlled impedance on all
high-frequency traces. For proper operation, the
exposed paddle must be soldered evenly to the board’s
ground plane. Use abundant vias beneath the exposed
paddle for maximum heat dissipation. Use abundant
ground vias between RF traces to minimize undesired
During the selection process, the VASE bit in the Status
Byte-1 register is cleared to indicate the autoselection
function is active. Upon successful completion, bits VASE
and VASA are set and the VCO selected is reported in the
Status Byte-2 register (see Table 15). If the search is
unsuccessful, VASA is cleared and VASE is set. This indi-
cates that searching has ended but no good VCO has
been found, and occurs when trying to tune to a frequen-
cy outside the VCO’s specified frequency range.

3-Bit ADC
The MAX2121 has an internal 3-bit ADC connected to
the VCO tune pin (TUNEVCO). This ADC can be used
for checking the lock status of the VCOs.
