APPLICATIONS Point to point radios Point to multipoint radios and very small aperture terminals (VSATs) Test equipment and sensors Military end use GENERAL DESCRIPTION The HMC260ALC3B is a general-purpose, double balanced, The HMC260ALC3B provides local oscillator (LO) to radio monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) mixer housed in frequency (RF) and LO to intermediate frequency (IF) a leadless, Pb-free, RoHS compliant LCC package. The device suppression due to optimized balun structures. The mixer can be used as an upconverter or downconverter in the 10 GHz to operates with LO amplitude levels between 9 dBm and 15 dBm. 26 GHz frequency range. The HMC260ALC3B mixer requires no The HMC260ALC3B eliminates the need for wire bonding, external components or matching circuitry. allowing the use of surface-mount manufacturing techniques.
