HMC399MS8 399MS8E / v04.1208 HIGH IP3 GaAs MMIC MIXER, 700 - 1000 MHz Typical Applications Features High Dynamic Range Infrastructure: +35 dBm Input IP3 (cid:129)GSM, GPRS & EDGE Conversion Loss: 8.5 dB (cid:129)CDMA & W-CDMA Low External Part Count E (cid:129)Cable Modem Termination Systems Ultra Small MSOP8 Package: 14.8 mm2 9 Included in the HMC-DK003 Designer’s Kit T Functional Diagram General Description T M The HMC399EMS8(E) is a high dynamic range passive MMIC mixer in plastic surface mount 8 lead S Mini Small Outline Package (MSOP) covering 700 - to 1000 MHz. Excellent input IP3 performance of 3 L P +35 dBm for down conversion and +32 dBm for I up conversion is provided for 2.5G & 3G GSM/ H CDMA based cellular applications at an LO drive O G of +17 dBm. With a 1 dB compression of +23 dBm, I the RF port will accept a wide range of input signal H levels. Conversion loss is 8.5 dB typical and LO - isolations are maintained at 23 to 35 dB. This S S miniature single-ended monolithic GaAs FET mixer R requires only one external inductor to optimize the E LO frequency response. The 50 to 250 MHz IF X I B frequency response will satisfy many cellular M transmit or receive frequency plans. The HMC399MS8(E) input IP3 performance coupled with its high P1dB rivals traditional active FET mixers O while offering a much smaller 14.8mm2 standard IC footprint and no DC bias.
