HMC352MS8 v00.0901 MICROWAVE CORPORATION GaAs MMIC MIXER w/ INTEGRATED LO AMPLIFIER, 1.7 - 2.5 GHz Typical Applications Features The HMC352MS8 is ideal for: Integrated LO Amplifier w/ Pdiss < 20 mW • MMDS Conversion Loss / Noise Figure: 7.0 dB • PCMCIA Low LO Drive: 0 dBm • WirelessLAN Input IP3: >+13 dBm • WCDMA Single Positive Supply: 3V to 5V Functional Diagram General Description The HMC352MS8 is a single balanced GaAs MMIC mixer with an integrated LO amplifier. This converter can operate as an upconverter and downconverter between 1.7 GHz and 2.5 GHz. With the integrated LO amplifier, the mixer requires an LO drive level of only 0 dBm, and requires only 6 mA from a single positive +3V rail. The mixer has 7 dB of conversion loss, an input P1dB of +5 dBm and an input third order intercept point of >+13 dBm at 2 GHz.

Two external RF bypass capacitor (10 pF & 10,000 pF) are required. 5 IF Por t IF Por t: This pin is DC coupled. For applications not requiring operation to DC, this por t should be DC blocked externally using a series capacitor whose values has been chosen to pass the necessar y IF frequency range. For operation to DC, this pin must not source/sink more than 3mA of current or die non-function and possible die failure will result. 8 RF Por t RF Por t: This pin is AC coupled and matched to 50 ohm from 1.7 - 2.5 GHz.
