HMC256 - GaAs MMIC I/Q MIXER

General Description

The HMC256 chip is a compact, 2.08 mm2, I/Q Mixer MMIC which can be used as an Image Reject Mixer (IRM) or Single Sideband (SSB) upconverter.

The chip utilizes two standard Hittite double-balanced mixer cells and a Lange Coupler realized in GaAs MESFET technology.

Key Features

  • The HMC256 is ideal for: High Image Rejection: >30 dB.
  • Microwave Radio & VSAT Input IP3: +18 dB.
  • Test Instrumentation Wideband IF: DC to 1.5 GHz.
  • Military Radios Radar & ECM Die Size: 1.6 x 1.3 x 0.1 mm.
  • Space OLETE Functional Diagram General.
