Device Overview

General Description

The MM1-0626H is a passive double balanced MMIC mixer. It delivers excellent 8 dB conversion loss, superior isolations and spurious performance across a broad 6 to 26.5 GHz RF/LO bandwidth. The LO drive requirement allows operation at as low as +12 dBm inputs. The MM1-0626H is available both as a wire bondable chip or in a 2.92mm connectorized BH package. If higher LO power is available, the MM1-0626S is recommended for higher mixer linearity.

Electrical Specifications

The electrical specifications apply at TA=+25°C in a 50Ω system. Typical data shown is for the connectorized BH package mixer used in the forward direction with a sine wave LO of +12 dBm and RF input power of -10 dBm, aside from linearity measurements. Min and Max limits apply only to our connectorized units and are guaranteed at TA=+25°C.
