Functional Diagram
General Description
The HMC218MS8 is an ultra miniature doublebalanced mixer in an 8 lead plastic surface mount package (MSOP). This passive MMIC mixer is constructed of GaAs Schottky diodes and novel planar transformer baluns on the chip. The device can be used as an upconverter, downconverter, bi-phase (de)modulator, or phase comparator. The consistent MMIC performance will improve system operation and assure regulatory compliance.
