Functional Diagram
General Description
The HMC615LP4(E) are high linearity, GaAs FET
converter ICs that operate from 2.3 to 4.0 GHz and
deliver a +35 dBm input third order intercept point.
The LO amplifier output and high dynamic range
mixer input are positioned so that an external LO
filter can be placed in series between them. The IC
operates from a single +5V supply consuming 65
mA of current and accepts a LO drive level of -2 to
+6 dBm. The design requires no external baluns and
supports IF frequencies between DC and 1 GHz.
The HMC615LP4(E) is pin for pin compatible with the
HMC551LP4(E), HMC552LP4(E) and HMC215LP4(E),
which operate from 0.8 to 4.0 GHz. For availability
