Leadless SMT Package, 25 mm²
General Description
The HMC329LM3 is a 26 - 40 GHz surface mount,
passive, double-balanced MMIC mixer in a SMT
leadless chip carrier package. The mixer can be
used as a downconverter or upconverter. Excellent
isolations are provided by on-chip baluns. The chip
requires no external components and no DC bias.
All data is with the non-hermetic, epoxy sealed LM3
package mounted in a 50 Ohm test fixture. Utilizing
the HMC329LM3 eliminates the need for wire-
bonding, thereby providing a consistent connection
interface for the customer.
