HMC332 / 332E v01.0705 MIXERS - SMT 7 GaAs MMIC MIXER w/ INTEGRATED LO AMPLIFIER, 2.0 - 2.8 GHz Typical Applications Features The HMC332 / HMC332E is ideal for: Integrated LO Amplifier w/ Pdiss: < 20 mW • MMDS Conversion Loss / Noise Figure: 8.0 dB • PCMCIA Low LO Drive Level: 0 dBm • WirelessLAN Input IP3: +10 dBm • WCDMA micro-BTS Single Positive Supply: 3V to 5V Functional Diagram General Description The HMC332 & HMC332E are single balanced mixer ICs with integrated LO amplifiers. This converter IC can operate as an upconverter or downconverter between 2.0 GHz and 2.8 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 8 dB of conversion loss, an input P1dB of 0 dBm, and an input third order intercept point of +10 dBm.

Two external RF bypass capacitors (10 pF & 10,000 pF) and an external inductor 4.7 nH) are required. 2, 5 GND Ground: Pin must connect to RF ground. 3 IF 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 have 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 die non-function and possible die failure will result. 4 RF This pin is AC coupled and matched to 50 Ohm from 2.0 - 2.8 GHz. 6 LO This pin is AC coupled and matched to 50 Ohm from 2.0 - 2.8 GHz.
