The MxL1602 device is a highly integrated and low power consumption dual-port radio frequency (RF) transceiver for wireless infrastructure radios. Its powerful combination of high integration, ultra-low power dissipation, high performance, and software-defined programmability makes it an optimal solution for 2G, 3G, 4G, and 5G macro, massive Multiple-Input/Multiple-Output (MIMO), and small cell radio platforms.

The MxL1602 device integrates two transmitters (Tx), two receivers (Rx), and one feedback receiver (FBRX). They are tunable to operate over a frequency range from 380 to 6000MHz. Each Rx is configurable to support wide signal bandwidths of up to 400MHz. Each Tx and FBRX is configurable to support wider signal bandwidths up to 850MHz to facilitate digital pre-distortion algorithms.

The MxL1602's software defined bandwidth and tuning flexibility is power-efficiently delivered using a direct conversion RF architecture. This architecture is underpinned by integrated digital radio processing functions and low-noise, on-chip local oscillators (LO). An optional external LO input is available.

The MxL1602 supports a JESD204 system interface, programmable to operate in either JESD204B or JESD204C mode with lane rates up to 19Gbps.

The MxL1602 has an embedded microcontroller sub-system that simplifies configuration, calibration, and management of the device.
