HMC775LC5 v03.0514 GaAs MMIC I/Q MIXER W/ LO AMPLIFIER, 10 - 16 GHz Typical Applications Features The HMC775LC5 is ideal for: Wide IF Bandwidth: DC - 3.5 GHz T •Point-to-Point and Point-to-Multi-Point Radio Image Rejection: 25 dB M •Digital Radio LO to RF Isolation: 45 dB S E •VSAT High Input IP3: +25 dBm - S •Military & Space Upconversion & Downconversion Applications R 0 dBm LO Drive T E V 32 Lead 5 x 5 mm SMT Package: 25 mm2 I E Functional Diagram General Description E C E The HMC775LC5 is a compact I/Q MMIC mixer in a R leadless ceramic SMT package, which can be used & as eLither an Image Reject Mixer or a Single Sideband S Upconverter. The mixer utilizes two standard Hittite M double balanced mixer cells and a 90 degree hybrid O fabricated in a GaAs MESFET process. A low R frequency quadrature hybrid was used to produce a I , 1 GHz USB IF output. This product is a much smaller S R alternative to hybrid style Image Reject Mixers and S E Single Sideband Upconverter assemblies. The X HMC775LC5 eliminates the need for wire bonding I and allows the use of surface mount manufacturing M B techniques.
