HMC6146B GaAs MMIC I/Q Upconverter, 40 - 44 GHz
The HMC6146BLC5A is a compact GaAs MMIC I/Q variable gain upconverter in a leadless RoHS compliant SMT package. This device provides a small signal conversion gain of 12 dB with 25 dBc of sideband rejection, and 17 db of gain control. The HMC 6146BLC5A utilizes a RF variable gain amplifier preceded by an I/Q mixer where the LO is driven by a X2 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 the unwanted sideband. The HMC6146BLC5A is a much smaller alternative to hybrid style single sideband upconverter assemblies and it eliminates the need for wire bonding by allowing the use of surface mount manufacturing techniques.
