HMC615LP4 / 615LP4E v02.1210 GaAs MMIC MIXER w/ INTEGRATED LO AMPLIFIER, 2.3 - 4.0 GHz Features High input iP3: +35 dBm Low input LO Drive: -2 to +6 dBm Low Conversion Loss: 10 dB single Positive supply: +5V @ 65 mA 24 Lead 4x4mm QFN Package: 9 mm² Typical Applications The HMC615LP4e is ideal for: • PCS / 3G Infrastructure • Base Stations & Repeaters • WiMAX & WiBro • ISM & Fixed Wireless 10 Mixers - HiGH iP3 - sMT Functional Diagram General Description The HMC615LP4(e) are high linearity, GaAs FeT converter iCs that operate from 2.3 to 4.0 GHz and deliver a +35 dBm input third order intercept point. The LO amplifier output and high dynamic range mixer input are positioned so that an external LO filter can be placed in series between them. The iC operates from a single +5V supply consuming 65 mA of current and accepts a LO drive level of -2 to +6 dBm. The design requires no external baluns and supports iF frequencies between DC and 1 GHz. The HMC615LP4(e) is pin for pin compatible with the HMC551LP4(e), HMC552LP4(e) and HMC215LP4(e), which operate from 0.8 to 4.0 GHz.

An off chip DC blocking capacitor is required. 2, 6 - 9, 11 - 17, 19 - 24 N/C No connection. These pins may be connected to rF ground. Performance will not be affected. 3 BiAs Power supply for the LO amplifier , a Bias resistor is required. Three external bypass capacitors are recommended for optimum performance, as illustrated in the application circuit. 4 GND Backside of package has exposed metal ground paddle that must also be connected to ground. 5 LO This pin is DC coupled and matched to 50 Ohms. An off chip DC blocking capacitor is required. 10 iF This pin is DC coupled. For applications not requiring operation to DC, this port should be DC blocked externally using a series capacitor whose value has been chosen to pass the necessary iF frequency range. For operation to DC, this pin must not source/ sink more than 18 mA of current or die non-function and possible die failure will result. 18 rF This pin is DC coupled and matched to 50 Ohms. 10 - 5 F or price, delivery and to place orders: Hittite Microwave Corporation, 20 Alpha Road, Chelmsford, MA 01824 Phone: 978-250-3343 Fax: 978-250-3373 Order On-line at www.hittite.com Application Support: Phone: 978-250-3343 or apps@hittite.com HMC615LP4 / 615LP4E v02.1210 GaAs MMIC MIXER w/ INTEGRATED LO AMPLIFIER, 2.3 - 4.0 GHz Application Circuit 10 Mixers - HiGH iP3 - sMT 10 - 6 Evaluation PCB recommended Components Values (iF = DC - 300 MHz) C3 C4 C1, C2, C5 L1 r1 1000 pF 2.2 µF 100 pF 18 nH 18 Ohm Note : select r1 to achieve icc by using equation below, r1 ≥ 18 Ohms.
