HMC218AMS8E

HMC218AMS8E v00.0411 GaAs MMIC SMT DOUBLEBALANCED MIXER, 4.5 - 6 GHz 9 MIXERS - DBL-BAL - SMT Typical Applications The HMC218AMS8E is ideal for: • Basestations, Repeaters & Access Points • WiMAX, WiBro & Fixed Wireless • Portables & Subscribers • PLMR, Public Safety & Telematics Features Passive Double-Balanced Topology Input IP3: +18 dBm Low Conversion Loss: 6.5 dB LO / RF Isolation: 30 dB LO / IF Isolation: 25 dB Upconverter & Downconverter Applications Functional Diagram General Description The HMC218AMS8E is an ultra miniature double-balanced mixer in an 8 lead plastic surface mount package (MSOP). This passive MMIC mixer is constructed of GaAs Schottky diodes and novel planar transformer baluns on the chip. The device can be used as an upconverter, downconverter, biphase modulator / demodulator, or phase comparator. The low conversion loss, high isolation and wide IF bandwidth make this mixer ideal for a variety of Rx and Tx frequency plans.
