Product Description
The MH201 is a passive GaAs MESFET mixer that
p
rovides high dynamic range performance in a low
cost SOIC-8 package. WJ’s MH201 uses patented
techniques to realize +30 dBm Input IP3 at an LO
drive level of +17 dBm when used in a simple
application circuit as an upconverting configuration.
This single monolithic integrated circuit does no
t
require any external baluns or bias elements.
Typical applications include frequency up/down
conversion, modulation and demodulation fo
r
receivers and transmitters used in 2.5G and 3G
systems using the cellular frequency bands.

1. Data was taken using an application board shown on the following page, with a low side LO at +17 dBm in an upconverting application at 25°C.
2. Input IP3 was measured with two tones with an input power of -5 dBm / tone separated by 1 MHz.
