HMC277MS8

HMC277MS8 / 277MS8E v00.0906 GaAs MMIC SMT SINGLE BALANCED MIXER, 0.7 - 1.2 GHz Features Passive Topology LO / RF Isolation: 26 dB Input IP3: +21 dBm Low Conversion Loss: 9 dB RoHS Compliant MSOP-8 Package Typical Applications The HMC277MS8 / HMC277MS8E is ideal for: • Cellular / 3G Infrastructure • Basestations & Repeaters • GSM, CDMA & WCDMA 8 MIXERS - SMT • Subscribers & Portables Functional Diagram General Description The HMC277MS8 & HMC277MS8E are general purpose single balanced mixers in 8 lead plastic surface mount Mini Small Outline Packages (MSOP). This passive MMIC mixer is constructed of GaAs Schottky diodes and a novel planar transformer balun on the chip. The HMC277MS8(E) requires no external matching components, and is ideal for upconverter and downconverter applications.The RF port is balanced via the MMIC balun while the LO port is connected directly to the diodes. This product is pin for pin compatible with the HMC272MS8(E) which operates from 1.7 to 3.0 GHz.

These pins may be connected to RF/DC ground without affecting performance. This pin is DC coupled. For applications not requiring operation to DC this port should be DC blocked externally using a series capacitor. Choose value of capacitor to pass IF frequency desired. For operation to DC, this pin must not sink/source more than 40 mA of current or failure may result. 6 IF 8 RF This pin is DC coupled & matched to 50 Ohms from 0.7 to 1.2 GHz 8 - 156 For price, delivery, and to place orders, please contact Hittite Microwave Corporation: 20 Alpha Road, Chelmsford, MA 01824 Phone: 978-250-3343 Fax: 978-250-3373 Order On-line at www.hittite.com HMC277MS8 / 277MS8E v00.0906 GaAs MMIC SMT SINGLE BALANCED MIXER, 0.7 - 1.2 GHz Evaluation Circuit Board 8 MIXERS - SMT List of Materials for Evaluation PCB 115791 [1] Item J1 - J3 U1 PCB [2] Description PCB Mount SMA RF Connector HMC277MS8 / HMC272MS8E Mixer 102643 Evaluation Board [1] Reference this number when ordering complete evaluation PCB [2] Circuit Board Material: Rogers 4350 The circuit board used in the final 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.
