Functional Diagram
General Description
The HMC483MS8G & HMC483MS8GE are high
dynamic range passive MMIC mixers with integrated
LO amplifiers in plastic surface mount 8 lead Mini
Small Outline Packages (MSOP) covering 0.7 to 1.4
GHz. Excellent input IP3 performance of +33 dBm for
down conversion and +30 dBm for up conversion is
provided for 2.5G & 3G GSM/CDMA applications at
an LO drive of 0 dBm. With an input 1 dB compression
of +24 dBm, the RF port will accept a wide range of
input signal levels. Conversion loss is 9.0 dB typical.
The DC to 350 MHz IF frequency response will satisfy
GSM/CDMA transmit or receive frequency plans
configured for low side LO. The HMC483MS8G &
HMC483MS8GE are pin for pin compatible with the
HMC485MS8G & HMC485MS8GE which are 1.7 2.2 GHz mixers with LO amplifiers.
Electrical Specifications, TA = +25°C, LO = 0 dBm, IF = 70 MHz*, Vdd= 5V

Pin Descriptions
Function
Description
1
LO
This pin is AC coupled & matched to 50 Ohms
from 0.7 to 1.4 GHz.
2
N/C
Not connected. This pin may be connected to RF/DC
ground without affecting performance.
3, 6, 7
GND
This pin and the ground paddle must be
connected to RF ground.
4
Vdd
Power supply for LO amplifier.
An external RF bypass capacitor is required.
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. Choose value of capacitor to pass
IF frequency desired. For operation to DC, this pin must
not sink/source more than 40 mA of current or failure may
result.

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.
