Device Overview
General Description
The MM2-0530L is a passive MMIC triple balanced mixer. It features a broadband IF port that spans from 2 to 20 GHz, and has excellent spurious suppression. GaAs MMIC technology improves upon the previous generation of hand assembled, hybrid M2 triple balanced mixers with improved isolations, unit-to-unit repeatability and reliability. The MM2-0530L is available as a wire bondable chip or connectorized SMA package.
Features
- Broadband IF Port
- Typical Input 1 dB Compression of +8 dBm
- High Input IP3 of +19 dBm
- Excellent LO to IF Isolation
- Unit-to-Unit Repeatability
- RoHS Compliant
