HMC260 v04.1007 GaAs MMIC FUNDAMENTAL MIXER, 14 - 26 GHz Typical Applications Features The HMC260 is ideal for: Passive: No DC Bias Required Point-to-Point Radios Input IP3: +20 dBm Point-to-Multi-Point Radios LO/RF Isolation: 39 dB Small Size: 1.0 x 0.55 x 0.1 mm 4 Functional Diagram General Description The HMC260 is a passive double balanced mixer that can be used as an upconverter or downconverter between 14 and 26 GHz. The miniature monolithic mixer (MMIC) requires no external components or matching circuitry. The HMC260 provides excellent LO to RF and LO to IF suppression due to optimized balun structures. The mixer operates with LO drive levels above +9 dBm. Measurements were made with the chip mounted and bonded into in a 50 ohm test fixture. Data includes the parasitic effects of wire bond assembly. Connections were made with a 3 mil rib- bon bond with minimal length (<12 mil). Electrical Specifi cations, T = +25 C A LO = +13 dBm, IF = 1 GHz Parameter Units Min. Typ. Max.
