Integrated LO Amplifi er: -4 dBm Input
Sub-Harmonically Pumped (x2) LO
High 2LO/RF Isolation: > 35 dB
LM3 SMT Package
General Description
The HMC264LM3 is a 20 - 31 GHz surface mount
sub-harmonically pumped (x2) MMIC mixer with
an integrated LO amplifi er in a SMT leadless chip
carrier package. The 2LO to RF isolation is an
excellent 25 to 35 dB, eliminating the need for
additional fi ltering. The LO amplifi er is a single
bias (+3V to +4V) two stage design with only -4
dBm drive requirement. All data is with the nonhermetic, epoxy sealed LM3 packaged device
mounted in a 50 ohm test fi xture. Utilizing the
HMC264LM3 eliminates the need for wirebonding, thereby providing a consistent connection
interface for the customer.
