[AK2403] AK2403
Cartesian Feedback Loop Transmitter
1. General Description
The AK2403 is a transmitter IC with the Cartesian Feedback Loop Linearization Technique. The AK2403
realize high linearity by receiving feedback signal from an external Power Amplifier (PA) via a coupler.
The core circuit of Cartesian Feedback Loop consists of forward path part and feedback path part.
The forward path consists of differential amplifier and I/Q modulator. And the feedback path consists of
attenuator, demodulator, phase shifter and differential to single amplifier. Since the AK2403 has a builtin DAC and PLL, the area of the system can be reduced. The built-in PLL in the AK2403 can generate
Local signal by using built-in VCO or external VCO. The AK2403 can execute the DC offset calibration
automatically by using the built-in DAC.
