MICROWAVE CORPORATION v00.0703 HMC377QS16G CELLULAR HIGH IP3 RFIC DOWNCONVERTER, 0.8 - 1.0 GHz Features +15 dBm Input IP3, +29 dBm Output IP3 Low LO Drive: -5 dBm LO Conversion Gain: 14 dB Noise Figure: 11 dB Positive Supply: +5V @ 135 mA Typical Applications The HMC377QS16G is ideal for: • GSM & CDMA Infrastructure • GPRS & EDGE Infrastructure • Wireless Data/CDPD Functional Diagram General Description The HMC377QS16G is a linear downconverter receiver IC suitiable for cellular infrastructure applications from 0.8 - 1.0 GHz. An integrated mixer coupled with a high dynamic range IF amplifier achieves an input intercept point (IP3) of +15 dBm, and an input P1dB of +3.5 dBm. The converter provides a gain of 13.5 dB and only 11 dB typical single side band noise figure. The IC operates from a positive +5V rail consuming 135 mA of current while requiring only -5 dBm LO drive. The design requires no external baluns. The mixer supports IF frequencies between 50 MHz and 250 MHz. 12 MIXERS - SMT Electrical Specifications, TA = +25° C, LO = -5 dBm, IF = 70 MHz, Vdd = 5V Parameter Frequency Range, RF & LO Frequency Range, IF * Conversion Gain Noise Figure (SSB) LO to RF Isolation LO to IF Isolation RF to IF Isolation IP3 (Input) 1 dB Compression (Input) LO Input Drive Level (Typical) Supply Current (Idd for IF + LO) 23 63 83 12 +0.5 11 Min.
