ADL5386 is a quadrature modulator with unmatched integration levels for low intermediate frequency (IF) and radio frequency (RF) transmitters within broadband wireless access systems, microwave radio links, cable modem termination systems, etc.
The ADL5386 quadrature modulator operates from 50 MHz to 2200 MHz and integrates a logarithmic power detector and a voltage‑variable attenuator (VVA). It is intended for radio‑link infrastructures, cable‑modem termination systems, wireless/cellular infrastructure, and broadband wireless access applications.
Key features include a single‑supply operation (4.75 V‑5.5 V), sideband suppression of –46 dBc (typical), noise floor of –160 dBm/Hz, and a linear AGC dynamic range of 30 dB. The device is packaged in a 40‑lead Pb‑free LFCSP_VQ and is rated for –40 °C to +85 °C operation.
