GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The HMC774ALC3B is a general-purpose, double balanced

mixer in a leadless, RoHS compliant, surface-mount package

that can be used as an upconverter or a downconverter between

7 GHz and 34 GHz. This mixer requires no external

components or matching circuitry. The HMC774ALC3B

provides excellent LO to RF isolation and LO to IF isolation due

to optimized balun structures.

The mixer operates best with a LO drive level of 15 dBm

(typical). The HMC774ALC3B eliminates the need for wire

bonding, allowing the use of surface-mount manufacturing

techniques.
