MD54-0007 Low Cost MMIC Mixer 2.1 - 2.7 GHz Rev. V4 Features • • • • • • Functional Schematic MMDS and WLAN Applications Input Power @ 1 dB Compression: +18 dBm LO to RF Isolation: > 20 dB +13 LO Drive Level Does not require DC bias Ultra-Miniature SOT-25 Plastic Package RF 4 3 2 L1 Description IF M/A-COM’s MD54-0007 is a passive mixer that achieves the performance of a double balanced diode mixer in an ultra-miniature SOT-25 package. The MD54-0007 is ideally suited for use where high level RF signals and very wide dynamic range are required. Typical applications include frequency up/ down conversion, modulation and demodulation in receivers and transmitters for basestation and portable systems. The MD54-0007 employs GaAs FETs as mixing elements to achieve very wide dynamic range in a low cost plastic package. The mixer operates with LO drive levels of +13 dBm to +18 dBm. The LO port may be externally tuned for operation in various frequency bands. M/A-COM’s MD54-0007 is fabricated using a mature 0.5 micron gate length GaAs MESFET process. The process features full passivation for increased performance and reliability.
