HMC213MS8 / 213MS8E v002.0505 MIXERS - SMT 7 GaAs MMIC SMT DOUBLEBALANCED MIXER, 1.5 - 4.5 GHz Typical Applications Features The HMC213MS8 / HMC213MS8E is ideal for: Ultra Small Package: MSOP8 • Base Stations Conversion Loss: 8.5 dB • PCMCIA Transceivers LO / RF Isolation: 40 dB • Wireless Local Loop Functional Diagram General Description The HMC213MS8 & HMC213MS8E are ultra miniature double-balanced mixers in 8 lead plastic surface mount packages (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 (de)modulator, or phase comparator. The consistent MMIC performance will improve system operation and assure regulatory compliance.

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.
