MA4EX240L-1225
Silicon Double Balanced HMIC™
Mixer 1700 - 2500 MHz
Features
• Low Cost Miniature Plastic Package
• Low Conversion Loss:
6.4 dB at 2100 MHz
7.4 dB at 2400 MHz
• +3 to +7 dBm LO Drive
• HMIC™ Process

Description
M/A-COM’s MA4EX240L-1225 is a silicon monolithic 1700 2500 MHz double balanced mixer in a low cost miniature surface
mount SOT-25 package. The dies uses M/A-COM’s unique
HMIC™ silicon/glass process to achieve low loss passive elements while retaining the advantages of low barrier silico n Scho ttky diodes.
Applications
These mixers are well suited for high volume wireless applications
where small size and repeatability are required. Typical applications include frequency conversion, modulation, and demodulation for receivers and transmitters in wireless LAN and other data
applications in the 2.4 GHz 15M band.
