HMC292ALC3B
13886-001
Figure 1.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The HMC292ALC3B is a general-purpose, double balanced,
monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC), mixer housed in
a leadless Pb-free, RoHS compliant LCC package, that can be
used as an upconverter or downconverter in the 14 GHz to 30
GHz frequency range. The HMC292ALC3B is ideally suited for
applications where small size, no dc bias, and consistent IC
performance are required. This mixer can operate over a wide
local oscillator (LO) drive level of 9 dBm to 15 dBm. It performs
equally well as a biphase modulator or demodulator. The
HMC292ALC3B eliminates the need for wire bonding, allowing
use of surface-mount manufacturing techniques.
