HMC521ALC4 is a compact, gallium arsenide (GaAs), monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC), inphase quadrature (I/Q) mixer. This device can be used as either an image reject mixer or a single sideband upconverter. The mixer uses two standard, double balanced mixer cells and a 90° hybrid coupler fabricated in a GaAs, metal semiconductor field effect transistor (MESFET) process. This device is a smaller alternative to hybrid style image reject mixers and single sideband upconverter assemblies. It eliminates the need for wire bonding, allowing use of surface-mount manufacturing techniques. It is widely used in applications such as microwave and very small aperture terminal (VSAT) radios, test equipment, military electronic warfare (EW); electronic countermeasure (ECM); and command, control, communications, and intelligence (C3I) etc.
