MAMXSS0010 MMIC Medium Level Mixer Rev. V3 1700 - 2000 MHz Features Functional Diagram Low Conversion Loss C Input Power 1 dB Compression: +21 dBm Typical Two-Tone IM Ratio: > 50 dBc LO Drive Level: +11 to +23 dBm L R DC - 200 MHz IF Bandwidth Lead-Free SOIC-8 Package 100% Matte Tin Plating over Copper Halogen-Free Green Mold Compound 8 7 6 5 260C Reflow Compatible RoHS* Compliant Version of MD54-0003 Description M/A-COMs MAMXSS0010 is a passive mixer that achieves the performance of a double balanced diode mixer in a lead-free surface mount plastic SOIC-8 package. The MAMXSS0010 is ideally suited for use where high level RF signals and very wide dynamic range are required. 1 2 3 4 Typical applications include frequency up/down External matching network on LO Port: R = 330 ohms, L = 3 nH, C = 3.3 pF conversion, modulation, demodulation in systems such as base station receivers and transmitters for DCS1800, PCS and PHS applications. Pin Configuration The MAMXSS0010 uses FETs as mixing elements Pin No. Function Pin No. Function to achieve very wide dynamic range in a low cost 1 Ground 5 Ground plastic package. The mixer operates with LO drive levels of +11 dBm to +23 dBm. No DC bias is 2 RF Port 6 LO Port required. 3 Ground 7 IF Port 4 Ground 8 Ground M/A-COMs MAMXSS0010 is fabricated using a mature 1-micron GaAs process. The process features full IC passivation for increased performance and reliability.

Harmonic of RF The spurious table shows the spurious signals resulting from the Handling Procedures mixing of the RF and LO input signals, assuming down conversion. Mixing products are indicated by the number of dB Please observe the following precautions to avoid below the conversion loss. The lower frequency mixing term is damage: shown for two different RF input levels. The top number is for an RF input power of -5 dBm, the lower number is for -15 dBm. Static Sensitivity mF - nF , RF = -5 dBm RF LO mF - nF , RF = -15 dBm Gallium Arsenide Integrated Circuits are sensitive RF LO RF Frequency = 1850 MHz to electrostatic discharge (ESD) and can be LO Frequency = 1710 MHz damaged by static electricity. Proper ESD control techniques should be used when handling these devices. 22 2 M/A-COM Technology Solutions Inc.
