HMC203_07

HMC203 v03.1007 GaAs MMIC DOUBLE-BALANCED MIXER, 14 - 23 GHz Typical Applications The HMC203 is ideal for: • DBS & SATCOM Features Conversion Loss: 10 dB LO / RF Isolation: 38 dB Passive: No DC Bias Required Die Size: 1.49 x 0.89 x 0.1 mm 3 MIXERS - CHIP • Microwave Radio • Military & Space • Radar & EW • Test Equipment & Sensors Functional Diagram General Description The HMC203 chip is a miniature double-balanced mixer which can be used as an upconverter or downconverter. Excellent isolations are provided by on-chip baluns, which require no external components and no DC bias. The mixer chip can be integrated directly into MMIC hybrid applications. Unless otherwise stated, all data was measured with the mixer mounted in a MMIC test fixture. The MMIC was connected to thin film 50 ohm transmission lines with 1 mil diameter wirebonds of
