Functional Diagram
General Description
The Hmc815Lc5 is a compact GaAs mmic i/q upconverter in a leadless roHs compliant smT package. This device provides a small signal conversion gain of 12 dB and sideband rejection of -20 dBc. The Hmc815Lc5 utilizes a driver amplifier preceded by an i/q mixer where the LO is driven by an active x2 multiplier. iF1 and iF2 mixer inputs are provided and an external 90° hybrid is needed to select the required sideband. The i/q mixer topology reduces the need for filtering of the unwanted sideband. The Hmc815Lc5 is a much smaller alternative to hybrid style single sideband upconverter assemblies and it eliminates the need for wire bonding by allowing the use of surface mount manufacturing techniques.

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.
