This document introduces the wireless infrastructure products of Maxim Integrated Products, Inc., including femtocells, macrocells, microcells, and picocells. It provides detailed information about RF-to-bit leading-edge technology and signal chain solutions, as well as various components and functions such as microwave point-to-point communication, high linearity mixers, RF analog predistortion, etc.
This Maxim design guide provides engineers with detailed information on wireless infrastructure for Base Transceiver Stations (BTS). It includes RF front‑end architecture, IF and base‑band processing, and extensive tables of Maxim components such as mixers, amplifiers, ADCs, DACs and voltage‑controlled oscillators.
The document contains frequency‑planning charts, performance specifications (gain, NF, IIP3, output power), and example configurations for GSM, EDGE, WCDMA and LTE. It also lists part numbers, pin‑outs and recommended PCB layouts to help designers integrate Maxim’s RF and mixed‑signal ICs into BTS hardware.
