HMC141C8

MICROWAVE CORPORATION v02.0302 HMC141C8 GaAs MMIC SMT DOUBLEBALANCED MIXER, 6 - 15 GHz Features Input IP3: +21 dBm Conversion Loss: 8.5 dB LO to RF Isolation: 35 dB Typical Applications The HMC141C8 is ideal for: • Microwave Pt to Pt Radios • VSAT Ground Equipment Functional Diagram General Description The HMC141C8 is a miniature passive doublebalanced mixer in a non-hermetic ceramic surface mount package that can be used as an upconverter or downconverter. The device is a passive diode/balun type mixer with high dynamic range. The mixer can handle larger signal levels than most active mixers due to the high third order intercept of 20 dBm. MMIC implementation provides exceptional balance in the circuit resulting in high LO/RF and LO/IF isolations and unitto-unit consistency. This mixer has applications where small size and surface mount compatibility are important. 12 MIXERS - SMT Electrical Specifications, TA = +25° C, LO Drive = +15 dBm Parameter Frequency Range, RF & LO Frequency Range, IF Conversion Loss Noise Figure (SSB) LO to RF Isolation LO to IF Isolation IP3 (Input) IP2 (Input) 1 dB Gain Compression (Input) 28 17 7 - 11 GHz 6 - 18 GHz Min.

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.
