ANALOG DEVICES HMC815BLC5 Upconverter, 21GHz to 27GHz, -40°C to 85°C, LCC-EP-32

HMC815BLC5 is a compact gallium arsenide (GaAs), pseudomorphic high electron mobility transistor (pHEMT), monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) upconverter. This device provides a small signal conversion gain of 12dB and a sideband rejection of 20dBc. The HMC815B utilizes a driver amplifier proceeded by an in phase/quadrature (I/Q) mixer where the LO is driven by an active 2× 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 unwanted sideband. The HMC815B is a smaller alternative to hybrid style single sideband (SSB) downconverter assemblies, and it eliminates the need for wire bonding by allowing the use of surface-mount manufacturing techniques. Applications include point to point and point to multipoint radios, military radars, electronic warfare, and electronic intelligence, satellite communications, sensors.
