HMC-C014 v05.0211 GaAs MMIC FUNDAMENTAL MIXER MODULE, 16 - 32 GHz Features Passive: No DC Bias Required Input IP3: +19 dBm LO/RF Isolation: 35 dB Wide IF Bandwidth: DC - 8 GHz Hermetically Sealed Module Typical Applications Field Replaceable Coaxial Connectors The HMC-C014 is ideal for: -55 to +85 C Operating Temperature 5 Telecom Infrastructure Military Radio, Radar & ECM General Description Space Systems The HMC-C014 is a general purpose passive double- Test Instrumentation balanced mixer housed in a miniature hermetic module that can be used as an upconverter or Functional Diagram downconverter between 16 and 32 GHz. This mixer requires no external components or matching circuitry. The HMC-C014 provides excellent LO to RF and LO to IF suppression due to optimized balun structures. The mixer operates with LO drive levels from +9 dBm to +15 dBm and requires no DC Bias. The HMC-C014 may also be used as a Bi-Phase Modulator/Demodulator or phase comparator. The module features removable coaxial connectors which can be detached to allow direct connection of the I/O pins to a microstrip or coplanar circuit.
