Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.

Note 1:
MAX2769 is production tested at T
A
= +25°C. All min/max specifications are guaranteed by design and characterization
from -40°C to +85°C, unless otherwise noted. Default register settings are not production tested or guaranteed. User must
program the registers upon power-up.
Note 2:
Default, low-NF mode of the IC. LNA choice is gated by the ANT_FLAG signal. In the normal mode of operation without an
active antenna, LNA1 is active. If an active antenna is connected and ANT_FLAG switches to 1, LNA1 is automatically
disabled and LNA2 becomes active. PLL is in an integer-N mode with f
COMP
= f
TCXO
/ 16 = 1.023MHz and I
CP
= 0.5mA. The
complex IF filter is configured as a 5th-order Butterworth filter with a center frequency of 4MHz and bandwidth of 2.5MHz. Output
data is in a 2-bit sign/magnitude format at CMOS logic levels in the I channel only.
Note 3:
The LNA output connects to the mixer input without a SAW filter between them.
Note 4:
Two tones are located at 12MHz and 24MHz offset frequencies from the GPS center frequency of 1575.42MHz
at -60dBm/tone. Passive pole at the mixer output is programmed to be 13MHz.
Note 5:
Measured from the LNA input to the LNA output. Two tones are located at 12MHz and 24MHz offset frequencies from the
GPS center frequency of 1575.42MHz at -60dBm per tone.
