RF2494

The RF2494 is a monolithic integrated UHF receiver front end suitable for 2.4GHz ISM band applications. The IC contains all of the required components to implement the RF functions of the receiver except for the passive filtering and LO generation. It contains an LNA (low-noise amplifier), a second RF amplifier and a doubly balanced mixer. The output of the LNA is made available as an output to permit the insertion of a bandpass filter between the LNA and the RF/Mixer section. The mixer outputs can be selectively disabled to allow for the IF filter to be used in the transmit mode.
