The HMC214MS8 & HMC214MS8E are general
purpose high dynamic range passive MMIC mixers
in plastic surface mount 8 lead Mini Small Outline
Packages (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
con gured for low side LO. The HMC214MS8 &
HMC214MS8E input IP3 performance coupled with
its high P1dB rivals traditional active FET mixers
while offering a much smaller 14.8mm
footprint and no DC bias.

This pin is DC coupled & matched to 50 Ohms
from 2.4 to 4.0 GHz. Blocking capacitors are required if line
potential is not equal to 0V.
No connection. These pins may be connected to RF ground.
Performance will not be affected.
This pin is DC coupled. For applications not requiring operation
to DC this port should be DC blocked externally using a series
capacitor. Choose value of capacitor to pass IF frequency
desired. For operation to DC, this pin must not sink/source
more than 40 mA of current or failure may result.

The circuit board used in the nal application should
use RF circuit design techniques. Signal lines
should have 50 ohm impedance while the package
ground leads and exposed paddle should be connected directly to the ground plane similar to that
shown. A suf cient number of VIA holes should be
used to connect the top and bottom ground planes.
The evaluation circuit board shown is available from
Hittite upon request.
