DESCRIPTION

· The HMC8191 is a passive, wideband I/Q monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) mixer.

· It operates as an image reject mixer for receivers or a single-sideband upconverter for transmitters.

· RF and LO range: 6 GHz to 26.5 GHz; IF bandwidth: DC to 5 GHz.

· Fabricated on a GaAs MESFET process, it uses Analog Devices' mixer cells and a 90-degree hybrid.

· Compact 4 mm × 4 mm, 24-terminal LCC package; operates from -40°C to +85°C.

FEATURES

· Passive design with no DC power requirement.

· Conversion loss: 9 dB (typical); Image rejection: 25 dBc (typical).

· Single-sideband noise figure: 9 dB (typical); Input IP3: 24 dBm (typical).

· High isolation: LO to RF/IF: 40 dB (typical); RF to IF: 20 dB (typical).

· Excellent amplitude balance: ±0.5 dB (typical); Phase balance: ±5° (typical).

APPLICATIONS

· Test and measurement instrumentation.

· Military, aerospace, and defense systems.

· Microwave point-to-point base stations.
