DBL-BAL Mixer SMT, 5 - 12 GHz

The HMC220MS8(E) is a wideband double-balanced mixer in an 8 lead plastic surface mount package. This fully integrated MMIC mixer is fabricated in a GaAs MESFET process and requires no DC bias and no external matching components. The HMC220MS8(E) mixer integrates Schottky diode mixing elements and on-chip balun transformers to deliver excellent isolation from LO to RF and from LO to IF. The wide IF bandwidth of DC to 4 GHz enables this mixer to be used in a wide range of general purpose applications including upconverters, downconverters, biphase modulators, demodulators, and phase comparators. The HMC220MS8(E) operates with LO drive levels as low as +7 dBm, and exhibits only 7 dB typical conversion loss.
