HMC773LC3B v03.0809 GaAs MMIC FundAMentAl MIxer, 6 - 26 GHz Features Passive: No DC Bias required input iP3: +22 dBm LO/rF isolation: 38 dB Wide iF Bandwidth: DC - 8 GHz 12 Lead Ceramic 3x3 mm sMT Package: 9mm2 typical Applications The HMC773LC3B is ideal for: • Point-to-Point radios 10 Mixers - siNGLe & DOUBLe BALANCeD - sMT • Point-to-Multi-Point radios & VsAT • Test equipment & sensors • Military end-Use Functional diagram General description The HMC773LC3B is a general purpose double balanced mixer in a leadless roHs compliant sMT package that can be used as an upconverter or downconverter between 6 and 26 GHz. This mixer requires no external components or matching circuitry. The HMC773LC3B provides excellent LO to rF and LO to iF suppression due to optimized balun structures. The mixer operates with LO drive levels above +13 dBm. The HMC773LC3B eliminates the need for wire bonding, allowing use of surface mount manufacturing techniques. electrical Specifications, tA = +25° C, IF = 0.5 GHz, lO = +13 dBm* Parameter Frequency range, rF & LO Frequency range, iF Conversion Loss LO to rF isolation LO to iF isolation rF to iF isolation iP3 (input) iP2 (input) 1 dB Gain Compression (input) 31 5 Min.

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 or sink more than 2 mA of current or part non-function and possible part failure will result. This pin is AC coupled and matched to 50 Ohms. These pins are not connected internally; however, all data shown herein was measured with these pins connected to rF/DC ground externally. 5 iF 8 rF 4, 6, 11 N/C 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 HMC773LC3B v03.0809 GaAs MMIC FundAMentAl MIxer, 6 - 26 GHz evaluation PCB 10 Mixers - siNGLe & DOUBLe BALANCeD - sMT 10 - 6 list of Materials for evaluation PCB 125042 item J1 - J2 J3 U1 PCB [2] Description sri sMA Connector 2.92mm PCB Mount K-Connector HMC773LC3B Mixer 125040 evaluation PCB [1] [1] reference this number when ordering compete evaluation PCB [2] Circuit Board Material: Arlon 25Fr or rogers 4350 The circuit board used in this 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.
