HMC815B GaAs MMIC I/Q Upconverter, 21 - 27 GHz

Point-to-Point and Point-to-Multi-Point Radio Military Radar, EW & ELINT Satellite Communications Sensors

The HMC815B is a compact GaAs MMIC I/Q upconverter in a leadless RoHS compliant SMT package. This device provides a small signal conversion gain of 12 dB with -20 dBc of sideband rejection. The HMC815B utilizes a driver amplifier preceded by an I/Q mixer where the LO is driven by an active 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 HMC815B 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.
