Low-Band Receiver Mixer Stand-Alone Test Guide
This section involves measuring the Low Band Receiver Mixer. All
unused ports will be terminated into 50
Ω
. Before measuring the
low band Mixer separately, the EVM board must be modified as
follows: Remove C12 and place C54. The EVM board is now
modified to use J15 as the input port of the Receiver Mixer.

The receiver mixer conversion gain (dB) is the measured power
(dBm) at the IF frequency minus the RF source power (dBm). It is
measured using a RF source and a spectrum analyzer.
1) Set the RF source power (RF P
in
) and the desired frequency
(see Table 8). Connect the RF source to the EVM RF port,
J15.
2) Set the LO source power (LO P
in
) and the desired frequency
(see Table 8). Connect the LO source to the EVM LO input
port, J12.
3) Set the spectrum analyzer to measure at the IF frequency (see
Table 8).
4) Connect the EVM IF output port, J11, to the spectrum
analyzer.
