General Description
ULTRA SMALL PACKAGE: MSOP8
LO/RF ISOLATION: 35 dB
IP3 (INPUT): +20 dBm
IDEAL FOR MMDS & W-CDMA

The HMC272MS8 is an ultra miniature single
balanced mixer in an 8 lead plastic surface
mount Mini Small Outline Package (MSOP).
This passive MMIC mixer is constructed of
GaAs Schottky diodes and a novel planar trans-
former balun on the chip. The RF port is bal-
anced via the MMIC balun while the LO port is
connected directly to the diodes. The device
can be used as an up or downconverter for PCS,
W-CDMA, 2.4 ISM, or MMDS applications. The
consistent MMIC performance will improve sys-
tem operation and assure regulatory compli-
ance. The MSOP8 package is the smallest
footprint available for a complete single-bal-
anced mixer, 0.118” x 0.190” (3.0mm x 4.9mm).
At a height of 0.040” (1.0mm) this is the thinnest
mixer package available today.
