High IP3 Mixer SMT, 2.4 - 4.0 GHz

The HMC214MS8(E) is a general purpose high dynamic range passive MMIC mixer in plastic surface mount 8 lead Mini Small Outline Package (MSOP) covering 2.4 to 4 GHz. Excellent input IP3 performance of +34 dBm for downconversion and +31 dBm for upconversion is provided for WiMax and other 3.5 GHz applications at an LO drive of +17 dBm. With a 1dB compression of +22 dBm, the RF port will accept a wide range of input signal levels. Conversion loss is 10 dB typical and LO isolations are maintained at 25 to 30 dB.

This miniature single-ended monolithic GaAs FET mixer does not require any external components or bias. The DC to 1 GHz IF frequency response will satisfy many transmit and receive frequency plans configured for low side LO. The HMC214MS8(E) input IP3 performance coupled with its high P1dB rivals traditional active FET mixers while offering a much smaller 14.8mm² standard IC footprint and no DC bias.
