Functional Diagram
General Description
The HMC686LP4(E) is a high dynamic range passive
MMIC mixer with integrated LO amplifier in a 4x4
SMT QFN package covering 0.7 to 1.1 GHz. Excellent
input IP3 performance of +34 dBm for down conversion is provided for 3G & 4G GSM/CDMA applications
at an LO drive of 0 dBm. With an input 1 dB compression of +25 dBm, the RF port will accept a wide
range of input signal levels. Conversion loss is 7.5 dB
typical. The DC to 500 MHz IF frequency response
will satisfy GSM/CDMA transmit or receive frequency plans. The HMC686LP4(E) is optimized to high
side LO frequency plans for 0.7 - 1.1 GHz RF Band
and is pin for pin compatible with the HMC684LP4(E)
which is a 0.7 - 1.0 GHz converter optimized for low
side LO. The HMC686LP4(E) is optimized to low side
LO frequency plans for 1.4 - 1.5 GHz RF LTE band
applications.

This pin is matched single-ended to 50 Ohms and DC

Power supply voltage. See application circuit
for required external components.
9
LO_BIAS
LO buffer current adjustment pin. Adjust the LO buffer
current through the external resistor R9 shown in the
application circuit (connect 330 Ohms for nominal
operation). This adjustment allows for a trade-off
between power dissipation and linearity performance of
the converter.
16
LO
This pin is matched single-ended to 50 Ohms and DC
shorted to ground through a balun.
19
G_BIAS
External bias. See application circuit for recommended external components. Apply +3.5V for nominal
operation at 5V supply voltage. G_Bias can be set to
between 0 and 5Vdc. The G_bias pin has an internal
15K ohm resistance to ground. This adjustment allows
for a trade off between conversion loss and linearity
performance of the converter (see figures CG, IP3 vs.
G-Bias).
21, 22
IFN, IFP
Differential IF input / output pins matched to differential
50 Ohms. For applications not requiring operation to
DC an off chip DC blocking capacitor should be used.

The circuit board used in the application should use
RF circuit design techniques. Signal lines should
have 50 Ohm impedance while the package ground
leads and exposed paddle should be connected
directly to the ground plane similar to that shown.
A sufficient number of via holes should be used to
connect the top and bottom ground planes. The
evaluation circuit board shown is available from Hittite upon request.

The circuit board used in the application should use
RF circuit design techniques. Signal lines should
have 50 Ohm impedance while the package ground
leads and exposed paddle should be connected
directly to the ground plane similar to that shown.
A sufficient number of via holes should be used to
connect the top and bottom ground planes. The
evaluation circuit board shown is available from Hittite upon request.
