Functional Diagram
General Description
The HMC333 & HMC333E are single balanced mixer
ICs with integrated LO amplifiers. This converter IC
can operate as an upconverter or downconverter
between 3.0 GHz and 3.8 GHz. With the integrated
LO amplifier, the mixer requires an LO drive level of
only 0 dBm, and requires only 7 mA from a single
positive +3V rail. The mixer has 8.5 dB of conversion loss, an input P1dB of 0 dBm and an input third
order intercept point of +10 dBm at 3.5 GHz.

Pin Descriptions
Function
Description
1
Vdd
Power supply for the LO Amplifier. Two external RF bypass
capacitors (10 pF & 10,000 pF) and an external inductor
(1.8 nH) are required.
2, 5
GND
Ground: Pin must connect to RF ground.
3
IF
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 3mA of current or die nonfunction and possible die failure will result.
4
RF
This pin is AC coupled and matched to
50 Ohm from 3.0 - 3.8 GHz.
6
LO
This pin is AC coupled and matched to
50 Ohm from 3.0 - 3.8 GHz

[1] Reference this number when ordering complete evaluation PCB
The circuit board used in the final application should
use RF circuit design techniques. Signal lines should
have 50 ohm impedance while the package ground
leads should be connected directly to the ground
plane similar to that shown. A sufficient number of
via holes should be used to connect the top and
bottom ground planes. The evaluation circuit board
shown is available from Hittite upon request.
