HMC-MDB277 v02.0813 GaAs MMIC FUNDAMENTAL MIXER, 70 - 90 GHz Typical Applications Features This HMC-MDB277 is ideal for: Wide IF bandwidth: DC - 18 GHz Short Haul / High Capacity Radios Passive Double Balanced Topology FCC E-Band Communication Systems LO Input Power: +14 dBm Automotive Radar Die Size: 1.55 x 1.4 x 0.1 mm Sensors Test & Measurement Equipment General Description Functional Diagram The HMC-MDB277 is a passive Double Balanced MMIC Mixer which utilizes GaAs Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor (HBT) Shottky diode technology and can be used as either an upconverter or a downconverter. All bond pads and the die backside are Ti/Au metallized and the Shottky devices are fully passivated for reliable operation. The HMC- MDB277 Double Balanced Mixer is compatible with conventional die attach methods, as well as thermocompression and thermosonic wire bonding, making it ideal for MCM and hybrid microcircuit applications. This compact MMIC is a much smaller and more consistent alternative to hybrid style double balanced mixer assemblies. All data shown herein is measured with the chip in a 50 Ohm environment and contacted with RF probes. Electrical Specifications*, T = 25 C, IF = 10 GHz, LO = +14 dBm A Parameter Min. Typ. Max.
