HMC815LC5

v04.0614 HMC815LC5 GaAs MMIC I/Q UPCONVERTER 21 - 27 GHz Mixers - Upcoverter - SMT Typical Applications Features The HMC815LC5 is ideal for: High Conversion Gain: 12 dB Point-to-Point and Point-to-Multi-Point Radios Sideband Rejection: -20 dBc Military Radar, EW & ELINT 2 LO to RF Isolation: 10 dB Satellite Communications Output IP3: +27 dBm Sensors OLETE Functional Diagram 32 Lead 5x5mm SMT Ceramic Package: 25mm² General Description The HMC815LC5 is a compact GaAs MMIC I/Q upconverter in a leadless RoHS compliant SMT package. This device provides a small signal conversion gain of 12 dB and sideband rejection of -20 dBc. The HMC815LC5 utilizes a driver amplifier preceded by an I/Q mixer where the LO is driven by an active x2 multiplier. IF1 and IF2 mixer inputs are provided and an external 90° hybrid is needed to select the required sideband. The I/Q mixer topology reduces the need for filtering of the unwanted sideband. The HMC815LC5 is a much smaller alternative to hybrid style single sideband upconverter assemblies and it eliminates the need for wire bonding by allowing the use of surface mount manufacturing techniques.
