PUMPED MIXER 17 - 25 GHz
Features
Integrated LO Amplifier: -5 dBm Input
Sub-Harmonically Pumped (x2) LO
High 2LO/RF Isolation: > 25 dB
Small Size: 0.97mm x 1.32mm
General Description
The HMC337 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 -5 dBm nominal drive
requirement. All data is measured 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).
