2.0-19.0 GHz GaAs MMIC Frequency Divider E1001-BD December 2007 - Rev 04-Dec-07 Features Divide-by-Four +0.0 dBm Output Power 35 dBc Fundamental Leakage Single-ended or Differential Input & Output 100% On-Wafer, DC and Output Power Testing 100% Visual Inspection to MIL-STD-883 Method 2010 General Description Mimix Broadband's 2.0-19.0 GHz GaAs MMIC freqency divider is an ECL (Emitter Coupled Logic) static frequency divider (divide-by-four) consisting of two cascaded divide-by-two circuits. Even-order harmonic levels are minimized by driving the inputs with a balanced input signal, and by taking the output differentially, but the circuit can be operated in a single-ended fashion with unused inputs & outputs open circuit. This MMIC uses Mimix Broadband's 2 um GaAs HBT device model technology to ensure high reliability and uniformity. The chip has surface passivation to protect and provide a rugged part with backside via holes and gold metallization to allow either a conductive epoxy or eutectic solder die attach process. This device is well suited for Millimeter-wave Point-to-Point Radio, LMDS, SATCOM and VSAT applications.
