Point to point radios Military electronic warfare (EW) electronic countermeasure (ECM) and command, control, communications and intelligence (C3I) GENERAL DESCRIPTION The HMC292ALC3B is a general-purpose, double balanced, local oscillator (LO) drive level of 9 dBm to 15 dBm. It performs monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC), mixer housed in equally well as a biphase modulator or demodulator. The a leadless Pb-free, RoHS compliant LCC package, that can be HMC292ALC3B eliminates the need for wire bonding, allowing used as an upconverter or downconverter in the 14 GHz to 30 use of surface-mount manufacturing techniques. GHz frequency range. The HMC292ALC3B is ideally suited for applications where small size, no dc bias, and consistent IC performance are required. This mixer can operate over a wide Rev.
