Functional Diagram
General Description
The HMC218AMS8E is an ultra miniature double-balanced mixer in an 8 lead plastic surface mount package (MSOP). This passive MMIC mixer is constructed
of GaAs Schottky diodes and novel planar transformer baluns on the chip. The device can be used as
an upconverter, downconverter, biphase modulator /
demodulator, or phase comparator. The low conversion loss, high isolation and wide IF bandwidth make
this mixer ideal for a variety of Rx and Tx frequency
plans.

The circuit board used in the 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.
