I/Q Mode: I and Q channel can be enabled by bits in Rx Control
Register.
IF Mode: only the I channel output and I channel differential
amplifier can be powered up using the Rx Control Register.
IF Mode: only the Q channel output and Q channel differential
amplifier can be powered up using the Rx Control Register.
General Control Register b3 and b2
VCO amplifier Negative Resistance (NR) control for optimum phase noise performance. These
bits control the NR (magnitude of the negative transconductance) of the on-chip VCO NR
amplifier. The NR minimum mode would thus be used with the lowest Q external tank circuit and
NR maximum with the highest Q one.

Rx Control Register (CMX991/CMX992)
6.3.1 Rx Control Register: C-BUS address $12
8-bit write-only
This register controls general features of the receiver such as Powersave.
All bits of this register are cleared to ‘0’ by a General Reset command.
