Product Description
The RF2424 is a monolithic integrated quadrature modulator IC capable of universal direct modulation for high frequency AM, PM, or compound carriers. Maximum output power is +7.5dBm, which is achieved with low input I and Q signal levels. This low-cost IC implements differential amplifiers for the modulation inputs, 90° carrier phase shift network, carrier limiting amplifiers, two matched double-balanced mixers, summing amplifier, and an output RF amplifier which will drive 50Ω from 700MHz to 1000MHz.
