input iP3: +17 dBm

Typical Applications

The HMC207As8 / HMC207As8e is ideal for:

• Base stations

• Cable Modems

• Portable Wireless

The HMC207As8 & HMC207As8e are miniature dou-

ble-balanced mixers in 8 lead plastic surface mount

small Outline iC (sOiC) packages. 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 modulator (de)modulator, or phase compara-

tor. The consistent MMiC performance will improve

system operation and assure regulatory compliance.

The high LO suppression of 45 to 50 dB yields excel-

lent carrier suppression for modulator applications.
