HMC340LP5 / 340LP5E v02.0108 MIXERS - SINGLE & DOUBLE BALANCED - SMT 10 GaAs MMIC SMT DOUBLE-BALANCED DUAL MIXER, 1.7 - 4.5 GHz D E U N I T N O T C C S U I D D O PR Typical Applications Features The HMC340LP5 / HMC340LP5E Dual Mixer is ideal for: Conversion Loss: 8.0 dB • Wireless Infrastructure LO/IF Isolation: 33 dB • Wireless Local Loop Input IP3: +20 dBm • Image Reject Mixer Conversion Gain Balance: 0.1 dB • I/Q Modulator LO/RF Isolation: 45 dB ns g i s De ew N r fo d e d enGeneral Description m m o c Re The HMC340LP5(E) is a double balanced dual mixer t o N covering 1.7 - 4.5 GHz RF/LO range. This passive 32 Lead 5x5mm SMT Package: 25mm2 • SSB Modulator Functional Diagram MMIC mixer is constructed of GaAs Schottky diodes and on-chip baluns. The device can be used as an upconverter, downconverter, bi-phase (de)modulator, or phase comparator. The mixer symmetry of the HMC340LP5(E) make it ideal for combining with external hybrids to implement a single sideband upconverter or image reject downconverter assembly. The consistent MMIC performance will improve system operation and assure regulatory compliance. A RoHS compliant, leadless 5x5 mm QFN surface mount package (LP5) houses the dual MMIC mixer IC.
