RMWM38001
38 GHz Mixer MMIC
PRODUCT INFORMATION
Description
The RMWM38001 is a 38 GHz Mixer designed to be used in point to point radios, point to multi-point
communications, LMDS, and other millimeter wave applications. In conjunction with other Raytheon amplifiers,
multipliers and mixers it forms part of a complete 38 GHz transmit/receive chipset. The RMWM38001 is a GaAs
MMIC diode mixer utilizing Raytheon鈥檚 0.25碌m power PHEMT process. The MMIC can be used as both an
Upconverter and a Downconverter and is sufficiently versatile to serve in a variety of mixer applications.
