The HMC-C009 is ideal for:
• Telecommunications Equipment
• Test Equipment
General Description
• Military Radios, Radar & ECM
The HMC-C009 is a passive I/Q MMIC mixer housed
in a miniature hermetic module which can be used as
either an Image Reject Mixer or a Single Sideband
Upconverter. The module utilizes two standard Hittite
double balanced mixer cells and a 90 degree hybrid
fabricated on a GaAs MESFET process. This MMIC
based module is a more reliable and consistent alternative to hybrid style I/Q Mixers and Single Sideband Converter assemblies. The module features removable SMA connectors which can be detached to
allow direct connection of the modules I/O pins to a
microstrip or coplanar circuit.

Interface Schematic
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 part non-function
and possible part failure will result.
This pin is AC coupled
and matched to 50 Ohms.
