The HMC264 chip is a sub-harmonically pumped (x2) MMIC mixer with an integrated LO amplifier which can be used as an upconverter or downconverter. The chip utilizes a GaAs PHEMT technology that results in a small overall chip area of 1.28mm². The 2LO to RF isolation is excellent eliminating the need for additional filtering. The LO amplifier is a single bias (+3V to +4V) two stage design with only -4 dBm nominal drive requirement. All data is measured with the chip in a 50Ω test fixture connected via 0.025 mm (1 mil) diameter wire bonds of minimal length <0.31 mm (<12 mils).APPLICATIONSMicrowave Point-to-Point RadiosLMDSSATCOM

The HMC264LC3B is a 21 - 31 GHz Sub-harmonically Pumped (x2) MMIC Mixer with an integrated LO amplifier in a leadless "Pb Free" SMT package. The 2LO to RF isolation is excellent at 30 dB, eliminating the need for additional filtering. The LO amplifier is a single bias (+3V to +4V) design with only -4 to +4 dBm drive requirement. The RF and LO ports are DC blocked and matched to 50 Ohms for ease of use while the IF covers DC to 6 GHz. The HMC264LC3B eliminates the need for wire bonding, allowing use of surface mount manufacturing techniques.APPLICATIONSPoint-to-Point RadiosPoint-to-Multi-Point Radios & VSATTest Equipment & SensorsMilitary End-Use

The HMC264LM3 is a 20 - 30 GHz surface mount sub-harmonically pumped (x2) MMIC mixer with an integrated LO amplifier in a SMT leadless chip carrier package. The 2LO to RF isolation is an excel- lent 25 to 35 dB, eliminating the need for additional filtering. The LO amplifier is a single bias (+3V to +4V) two stage design with only -4 dBm drive requirement. All data is with the non-hermetic, epoxy sealed LM3 packaged device mounted in a 50 ohm test fixture. Utilizing the HMC264LM3 eliminates the need for wirebonding, thereby providing a consistent connection interface for the customer.APPLICATIONS20 and 30 GHz Microwave RadiosUp and Down Converter for Point-to-Point RadiosLMDS and SATCOM

The HMC265 chip is a sub-harmonically pumped (x2) MMIC downconverter with integrated LO & IF amplifiers. The chip utilizes a GaAs PHEMT technology that results in a small overall chip area of 1.74 mm2. The 2LO to RF isolation is excellent eliminating the need for additional filtering. The LO amplifier is a single bias (+3V to +4V) two stage design with only -4 dBm nominal drive requirement. All data is with the chip in a 50 ohm test fixture connected via 0.025 mm (1 mil) diameter wire bonds of minimal length <0.31 mm (<12 mils). This downconverter IC is an excellent, smaller, and more reliable replacement to hybrid diode based downconverter MMIC assemblies.APPLICATIONSMicrowave Point-to-Point RadiosLMDSSATCOM

The HMC265LM3 is a 20 - 31 GHz surface mount sub-harmonically pumped (x2) MMIC mixer downconverter with integrated LO and IF amplifiers in a SMT leadless chip carrier package. The 2LO to RF and IF isolations are an excellent 28 to 47 dB, eliminating the need for additional filtering. The LO amplifier is a single bias (+3V to +4V) two stage design with only -4 dBm drive requirement. All data is with the non-hermetic, epoxy sealed LM3 packaged device mounted in a 50 ohm test fixture.

The HMC266 chip is a broadband GaAs MMIC sub-harmonically pumped (x2) balanced passive mixer which can be used as an upconverter or downconverter in a small overall chip area of 1.9 mm². The 2LO to RF isolation is excellent eliminating the need for additional filtering. All data is with the chip in a 50 ohm test fixture connected via 0.076 mm (3 mil) ribbon bonds of minimal length <0.31 mm (<12 mils). These devices are much smaller and more reliable than hybrid diode mixer designs.ApplicationsPoint-to-Point Radios23, 26, & 38 GHzLMDSSATCOM

The HMC270AMS8GE are broad-band non-reflective GaAs SPDT switches in 8 lead MSOP grounded base surface mount plastic packages. Covering DC to 8 GHz, the switch offers excellent isolation from 70 to 35 dB. The negative control voltage of -5 volts allows operation down to DC. If positive control is required along with high isolation, see the DC to 3.5 GHz HMC284AMS8GE non-reflective SPDT.APPLICATIONSThe HMC270AMS8GE is ideal for DC - 8.0 GHz applications:CATVMMDS and wireless LANWireless local loop
