MMIC Medium Level Mixer 800 - 1000 MHz MD54-0004 V2.00 SO-8 Features ● ● ● ● ● Low Conversion Loss +21 dBm 1 dB Compression LO Drive Level: +11 to +23 dBm DC - 100 MHz IF Bandwidth Low Cost Plastic SOIC Package PIN 8 Orientation mark PIN 1 .1890-.1968 (4.80-5.00) -A- Description M/A-COM’s MD54-0004 is a passive mixer that achieves the performance of a double balanced diode mixer in a low cost surface mount plastic SOIC 8-lead package. The MD54-0004 is ideally suited for use where high level RF signals and very wide dynamic range are required. Typical applications include frequency up/down conversion, modulation, demodulation in systems such as cellular receivers and transmitters, and 900 MHz ISM band applications. The MD54-0004 uses FETs as mixing elements to achieve very wide dynamic range in a low cost plastic package. The mixer operates with LO drive levels of +11 dBm to +25 dBm. DC bias is not required. .2284-.2440 (5.80-6.20) .010(0.25) M B M .1497-.1574 (3.80-4.00) -B- .004 (0.10) .0532-.0688 (1.35-1.75) 0°-8° -C.0040-.0098 (0.10-0.25) .013-.020 TYP.
