General Description
The HMC696LP4E is a low noise, high linearity Direct
Quadrature Modulator RFIC which is ideal for digital
modulation applications from 0.02 to 2.7 GHz inc-
luding software defined radio and multi-band tran-
smitters. Housed in a compact 4x4 mm (LP4) SMT
QFN package, the RFIC requires minimal external
components & provides a low cost alternative to more
complicated double upconversion architectures. The
RF output port is single-ended and matched to 50
Ohms with no external components. The LO requires
0 to +10 dBm and can be driven in either differential
or single-ended mode. This device is optimized for a
+5V supply, and offers improved carrier feedthrough
and sideband suppression characteristics. For higher
frequency applications, the HMC697LP4E Direct
Modulator covers 450 - 4000 MHz.
