General Description
The HMC-C015 is a general purpose double-balanced mixer housed in a miniature hermetic module which can be used as an upconverter or downconverter between 24 and 38 GHz. This mixer requires no external ponents or matching circuitry. The HMC-C015 provides excellent, LO to RF, and LO to IF suppression due to optimized balun structures. The mixer operates with LO drive levels from +11 to +15 d Bm and requires no DC bias. The HMC-C015 may also be used as a Bi-Phase Modulator/Demodulator or phase parator. The module features removable coaxial connectors which can be detached to allow direct connection of the I/O pins to a microstrip or coplanar circuit.
