HMC260LC3B v05.0414 GaAs MMIC FUNDAMENTAL MIXER, 14 - 26 GHz Typical Applications Features The HMC260LC3B is ideal for: Passive: No DC Bias Required Point-to-Point Radios Input IP3: +20 dBm Point-to-Multi-Point Radios & VSAT LO/RF Isolation: 40 dB Test Equipment & Sensors Wide IF Bandwidth: DC - 8 GHz Military End-Use 2 12 Lead Ceramic 3x3 mm SMT Package: 9mm Functional Diagram General Description The HMC260LC3B is a general purpose double balanced mixer in a leadless RoHS compliant SMT package that can be used as an upconverter or downconverter between 14 and 26 GHz. This mixer requires no external components or matching circuitry. The HMC260LC3B 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. The HMC260LC3B eliminates the need for wire bonding, allowing use of surface mount manufacturing techniques.
