General Description
The HMC622LP4E is a highly integrated converter
IC that operates from 1.8 to 3.9 GHz for both upconversion and downconversion applications. The
HMC622LP4E incorporates a high dynamic range,
double-balanced mixer core with integrated LO and
IF amplifiers, making it ideal for compact transceiver
applications in GSM, WCDMA, TD-SCDMA, WiBro
and WiMAX. This versatile converter RFIC operates
with a low LO input power level of only +3 dBm, provides up to 10 dB conversion gain, and exhibits +23
dBm Input IP3 in downconversion mode. This RFIC
provides up to 12 dB conversion gain in upconverter
mode. Specific evaluation boards are available for
both upconversion and downconversion modes.

Description

IFIN
This pin is matched to 50 ohms with a 51nH inductor to
ground. See Application Circuit.
9
CAP
AC ground. An external capacitor of 0.01 μF to ground
is required for low frequency bypassing. See application circuit for further details.
10
MIXIF
This pin is DC coupled. For applications not requiring
operation to DC, this port should be DC blocked externally using a series capacitor whose value has been
chosen to pass the necessary IF frequency range. For
operation to DC, this pin must not source/sink more
than 18 mA of current or part non-function and possible
part failure will result.
12
IFOUT
This pin is AC coupled and
matched to 50 Ohms.
13
VddIF
Power supply for IF amplifier. Choke
inductor and bypass capacitor are required.
See application circuit.
16
MIXLO
This pin is DC coupled and matched to 50 Ohms.
An off chip DC blocking capacitor is required.
17
GND
Backside of package has exposed metal ground
paddle that must also be connected to ground.
18
BIAS
Power supply and RF Output of the LO
amplifier. Three external bypass capacitors
are recommended for optimum performance,
as illustrated in the application circuit.
21
LO
This pin is DC coupled and matched to 50 Ohms.
An off chip DC blocking capacitor is required.
See application circuit.
