TGC4610-SM K-Band Downconverter Product Description The Qorvo TGC4610-SM is a K-Band Image Reject Downconverter. The TGC4610-SM operates over an RF frequency range of 17 to 27 GHz and LO from 6.5 to 15.5 GHz with IF outputs from DC to 4 GHz. This part is designed using Qorvos pHEMT production process. The TGC4610-SM integrates an LNA, and image reject mixer driven by a multiplier. It typically provides an Input IP3 of 3 dBm at 25 dBm input power per tone and has a conversion gain of 15 dB and noise figure of 2.5 dB or less. 28-pin 5x5 mm QFN package The TGC4610-SM is available in a low-cost, surface mount 28 lead 5x5 mm QFN package and is ideally Product Features suited for Point-to-Point Radio, and K-Band VSAT Ground Terminal applications. RF Frequency Range: 17 27 GHz IF Frequency: DC 4 GHz Lead-free and RoHS compliant. LO Frequency: 6.5 15.5 GHz LO Input Power: 2 to 9 dBm Conversion Gain: 15 dB Noise Figure: 2.5 dB Package Dimensions: 5.0 x 5.0 x 1.3 mm Performance is typical across frequency.
