HMC553LC3B v05.0514 GaAs MMIC FUNDAMENTAL MIXER, 7 - 14 GHz Typical Applications Features The HMC553LC3B is ideal for: Passive Double Balanced Topology Point-to-Point Radios High LO/RF Isolation: 50 dB Point-to-Multi-Point Radios Low Conversion Loss: 7 dB Test Equipment & Sensors Wide IF Bandwidth: DC - 5 GHz Military End-Use Robust 1,000V ESD, Class 1C 2 12 Lead Ceramic 3x3mm SMT Package: 9mm Functional Diagram General Description The HMC553LC3B is a general purpose double balanced mixer in a leadless RoHS compliant SMT package that can be used as an upconverter or downconverter between 7 and 14 GHz. This mixer is fabricated in a GaAs MESFET process, and requires no external components or matching cir- cuitry. The HMC553LC3B provides excellent LO to RF and LO to IF isolation due to optimized balun structures and operates with LO drive levels as low as +9 dBm. The RoHS compliant HMC553LC3B elim- inates the need for wire bonding, and is compatible with high volume surface mount manufacturing techniques.
