Description
M/A-COM’s MAMXSS0012 is a passive mixer that
achieves the performance of a double balanced
diode mixer in a lead-free SOT-25 package. The
MAMXSS0012 is ideally suited for use where high
level RF signals and very wide dynamic range are
required. Typical applications include frequency up/
down conversion, modulation, and demodulation in
receivers and transmitters for base station and
portable systems.
The MAMXSS0012 employs GaAs FETs as mixing
elements to achieve a very wide dynamic range in a
low cost plastic package. The mixer operates with
LO drive levels of +3 dBm to +8 dBm. The LO port
may be externally tuned for operation in various
frequency bands.
M/A-COM's GaAs IC is fabricated using a mature
0.5 micron gate length GaAs MESFET process. The
process features full passivation for increased
performance and reliability.
