Features
Sub-harmonic Receiver Integrated LNA, LO Buffer, Image Reject Mixer 7x7 mm, QFN +2.0 dBm LO Drive Level 2.5 dB Noise Figure 20.0 dB Image Rejection 100% On-Wafer RF, DC and Noise Figure Testing
Mimix Broadband’s 17.0-25.0 GHz GaAs packaged receiver has a noise figure of 2.5 dB and 20.0 dB image rejection across the band. This device is a two stage balanced LNA followed by an image reject sub-harmonic anti-parallel diode mixer and includes an integrated LO buffer amplifer. The image reject mixer eliminates the need for a bandpass filter after the LNA to remove thermal noise at the image frequency.
