The ADF5904 is a highly integrated, 4-channel, 24 GHz receiver downconverter MMIC with the industry’s best combination of low noise performance, high linearity, and low power consumption.
The ADF5904 integrated, multichannel receiver downconverter achieves a 10 dB noise figure that is 3 dB better than competing devices. While using 50% less power, it is assembled in a small, cost-effective 5 mm × 5 mm LFCSP plastic package.
Each of the device’s four on-chip receive channels use a simple, single-ended connection to four individual antennas, which simplifies RF transmission line design and PCB layout, and reduces board size.
