7.5 RF Mixer Input Matching
With reference to Figure 21 and Table 15 below, the receiver input can be matched to alternative
frequencies, with typical values shown. In all cases, R1, R2 = not fitted and C3, C4 = 1nF.

7.6 RF Mixer IF Output Matching
In a typical implementation, the MIXOUT pin(s) will require matching from around 500Ω ║ 4pF to the input
of a crystal filter. The impedance of such a filter will often only be specified within the passband; it will be
very different outside the passband. Careful broad band termination of the MIXOUT port is therefore
critical in achieving the optimum intermodulation and spurious response performance from the system.
The use of a shunt resistive element at MIXOUT is a compromise between system gain and
intermodulation. Values between 1,000ohms and 120ohms can be used in practice. Some shunt
capacitance at MIXOUT also helps in suppressing harmonics of the RF and LO inputs that may appear at
the port, so a Pi network is recommended.
With the matching network of Figure 7, the rejection of the half IF response has been found to be optimum
using high side mixing.
