HMC8191 is a passive wideband I/Q MMIC mixer that can be used either as an image reject mixer for receiver operations or as a single sideband upconverter for transmitter operations. With an RF and LO range of 6 GHz to 26.5 GHz, and an IF bandwidth of dc to 5 GHz, the HMC8191 is ideal for applications requiring wide frequency range, excellent RF performance, and a simpler design with fewer parts and a smaller printed circuit board (PCB) footprint. A single HMC8191 can replace multiple narrowband mixers in a design.
The inherent I/Q architecture of the HMC8191 offers excellent image rejection and thereby eliminates the need for expensive filtering for unwanted sidebands. The mixer also provides excellent LO to RF and LO to IF isolation and reduces the effect of LO leakage to ensure signal integrity
The HMC8191 is fabricated on a GaAs MESFET process and uses Analog Devices, Inc., mixer cells and a 90-degree hybrid. It is available in a compact 4 mm × 4 mm, 24-lead LFCSP package and operates over a −40 C to +85 C temperature range.
