The HMC218BMS8GE is an ultra miniature double- balanced mixers in an 8 lead plastic surface mount packages (MSOP). This passive MMIC mixer is constructed of GaAs Schottky diodes and novel planar transformer baluns on the chip. The device can be used as an up-converter, down-converter, bi-phase modulator / demodulator, or phase comparator. This mixer performs well when used as a down-converter from 3.5 to 8 GHz and as an up-converter from 4.5 to 8 GHz. The low conversion loss, high isolation and wide IF bandwidth make this mixer ideal for a variety of Rx and Tx frequency plans.ApplicationsBase stations, Repeaters & Access PointsWiMAX, WiBro & Fixed WirelessPortables & SubscribersPLMR, Public Safety & Telematics

The HMC220B is an ultraminiature, double-balanced mixer in an 8-lead mini small outline package with exposed pad (MINI_SO_EP). This fundamental, monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) mixer is constructed of gallium arsenide (GaAs) Schottky diodes and planar transformer baluns on the chip.The device can be used as an upconverter, downconverter, biphase demodulator, or phase comparator from 5 GHz to 12 GHz. The HMC220B provides excellent local oscillator (LO) to radio frequency (RF) and LO to intermediate frequency (IF) isolation due to optimized balun structures and operates as low as 7 dBm. The RoHS compliant HMC220B eliminates the need for wire bonding and is compatible with high volume surface-mount manufacturing techniques.ApplicationsVery small aperture terminals (VSAT) and mobile satellite communication terminalsMicrowave and military radioWireless backhaul equipmentAutomotive, dedicated short range communications (DSRC) and intelligent vehicle highway systems (IVHS)Military radar, electronic warfare (EW), and electronic counter measure (ECM) subsystems

The HMC221B is a single-pole, double-throw (SPDT) switch specified from 10 kHz to 3 GHz in a 6-lead SOT-23 plastic package. This switch offers a very low insertion loss of less than 0.8 dB up to 3 GHz and is well suited for receiver and filter switching applications that require low insertion loss and a small size.The RF1 and RF2 pins are reflective shorts when in an off state, and the two control voltages (the A and B pins) require a minimal dc bias current. Note that the HMC197B exhibits a similar performance in an alternate pinout.ApplicationsIndustrial, scientific and medical (ISM)PCMCIA wireless cardsCellular applications

The HMC230MS8(E) is a broadband 3-bit positive control GaAs IC digital attenuator in 8 lead MSOP surface mount plastic package. Covering 0.75 to 2 GHz, the insertion loss is typically less than 2 dB. The attenuator bit values are 4 (LSB), 8, and 16 dB for a total attenuation of 28 dB. Accuracy is excellent at ±0.5 dB typical with an IIP3 of up to +48 dBm. Three bit control voltage inputs, toggled between 0 and +3 to +5 volts, are used to select each attenuation state at less than 50 uA each. A single Vdd bias of +3 to +5 volts applied through an external 5K Ohm resistor is required.ApplicationsCellularPCS, ISM, MMDSWLL HandsetBase Station Infrastructure

The HMC231G7 is a broadband high isolation non-reflective GaAs MESFET SPST switch in a hermetic surface mount package. Covering DC to 6 GHz, the switch features >55 dB isolation up to 2 GHz and >42 dB isolation up to 6 GHz. The switch operates using complementary negative control voltage logic lines of -5/0V and requires no bias supply. When the "OFF" state is selected, both RF1 and RF2 ports are terminated in 50 Ohms.ApplicationsTelecom InfrastructureMicrowave Radio & VSATMilitary Radios, Radar & ECMSpace SystemsTest Instrumentation
