HMC-C046 v02.0711 GaAs MMIC I/Q MIXER MODULE 20 - 31 GHz Features Wide iF Bandwidth: DC - 4.5 GHz image r ejection: 24 dB LO to r F isolation: 42 dB High input iP3: 22.5 dBm Hermetically s ealed Module Field r eplaceable s MA Connectors Typical Applications -55 to +85 C Operating Temperature The HMC-C046 is ideal for: 5 Point-to-Point r adios Point-to-Multi-Point r adios & Vs AT General Description Test equipment & s ensors The HMC-C046 is a passive i/Q MMiC mixer housed Military end-Use in a miniature hermetic module which can be used as either an image r eject Mixer (ir M) or a s ingle s ide- Functional Diagram band Upconverter. The module utilizes two standard Hittite double balanced mixer cells and a 90 degree hybrid fabricated on a GaAs Mes FeT process. A low frequency quadrature hybrid was used to produce a 100 MHz Upper s ide Band (Us B) iF output. This MMiC based module is a more reliable and consis- tent alternative to hybrid style i/Q Mixers and s ingle s ideband Converter assemblies. The module features removable s MA connectors which can be detached to allow direct connection of the i/O pins to a microstrip or coplanar circuit.
