MIXERS - SGL-BAL - SMT Pin Descriptions 3, 4, 6 N/C Not Connected 5 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 has been chosen to pass the necessary IF frequency range. For operation to DC, this pin must not source/sink more than 2 mA of current or die non-function and possible die failure will result. 7 RF This pin is AC coupled and matched to 50 Ohms. 9 - 264 Interface Schematic For price, delivery, and to place orders, please contact Hittite Microwave Corporation: 20 Alpha Road, Chelmsford, MA 01824 Phone: 978-250-3343 Fax: 978-250-3373 Order On-line at www.hittite.com HMC411MS8G / 411MS8GE v02.0607 GaAs MMIC SINGLE-BALANCED MIXER, 10 - 15 GHz Evaluation PCB MIXERS - SGL-BAL - SMT 9 List of Materials for Evaluation PCB 103350 [1] Item Description J1 - J2 PCB Mount SMA RF Connector, SRI J3 PCB Mount SMA Connector, Johnson U1 HMC411MS8G / HMC411MS8GE PCB [2] 101650 Evaluation Board [1] Reference this number when ordering complete evaluation PCB [2] Circuit Board Material: Rogers 4350 The circuit board used in the final application should use RF circuit design techniques. Signal lines should have 50 ohm impedance while the package ground leads and exposed paddle 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.
