General Description
The HMC1015 is a general purpose triple balanced
mixer chip that can be used as a frequency converter
with 16 to 22 GHz at the IF port and 26 to 32 GHz at
the RF port. This mixer requires no external
components or matching circuitry. The HMC1015
provides excellent LO/RF, LO/IF and 2LO/IF isolation
due to optimized balun structures. The mixer operates
with LO drive levels from +9 dBm to +15 dBm. The
HMC1015 wideband mixer exhibits consistent
conversion gain and compression across its band-
width.
Electrical Specifications, T_A = +25° C, LO = 9 GHz, LO = +13 dBm ^[2]
