MIXER + OSCILLATOR IC FOR PAGER SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
µ
PC8103T and
µ
PC8108T are silicon monolithic integrated circuits designed as mixer-oscillator series for
pager system. Due to 1 V supply voltage, these ICs are suitable for low voltage pager system. These ICs are
packaged in 6 pin mini mold suitable for high-density surface mounting.
These ICs are manufactured using NEC’s 20 GHz f
T
NESAT
TM
III silicon bipolar process. This process uses
silicon nitride passivation film and gold electrodes. These materials contributes excellent DC, AC perform-
ance. Thus, these ICs are utilized as 1 V voltage ICs.
FEATURES

FUNCTION AND APPLICATION
RF input for mixer. This port
is low impedance.
This ground pin must be
connected to the system
ground with minimum
inductance. Ground pattern
on the board should be
formed as wide as possible.
Track length should be kept as
short as possible.
Emitter, base pins of internal
transistor for oscillator.
These pins should be exter-
nally equipped with resonator
circuit of X’tal or LC.
Supply voltage pin.
Connect bypass capacitor (eg
1 000 pF) to minimize ground
impedance.
