Functional Diagram
General Description
The HMC316MS8 is a miniature double balanced
mixer in an 8 lead plastic surface mount package.
The passive GaAs schottky diode mixer imple-
ments planar on chip balun transformers, and
requires no external components. The mixer can
be used as an upconverter, downconverter, or
modulator. At mid-band the mixer provides 7.5 dB
conversion loss and +25 dBm IIP3 with LO drive
levels of +19 dBm. The design was optimized
for low cost high volume applications where high
converter linearity is required.
