GaAs MMIC DBL-BAL Mixer Chip, 6 - 11 GHz

The HMC130 chip is a miniature double-balanced mixer which can be used as an upconverter or downconverter in the 6 to 11 GHz band. The chip can be integrated directly into hybrid MMIC’s without DC bias or external baluns to provide an extremely compact mixer. It is ideally suited for applications where small size, no DC Bias, and consistent IC performance are required. This mixer can operate over a wide LO drive input of +9 to +15 dBm. It performs equally well as a Bi-Phase modulator or demodulator. See HMC137 data sheet.
