Product Description
Functional Diagram
The ML501 high linearity upconverter or downconverter
combines a passive GaAs MESFET mixer with an
integrated HBT LO driver in a low-cost lead-
free/green/RoHS-compliant SOIC-8 package. WJ’s
ML501 uses patented techniques to realize +30 dBm Input
IP3 with 8 dB conversion loss using an LO drive level of 0
dBm in a downconverting application. The on-chip
diplexer in the mixers allows for good matching on the RF
and IF ports. The dual-stage LO driver provides a stable
input power level into the mixer to allow for consistent
performance over a wide range of LO power levels.

Typical applications include frequency up/down
conversion, modulation and demodulation for receivers and
transmitters used in 2.5G and 3G GSM/CDMA/WCDMA
systems in the PCS, or UMTS frequency bands. They can
also be used for WiBro/WiLAN/WiMAX infrastructure
requiring high linearity frequency conversion.

1. Min / max limits are tested for the mixer in downconverting application with a low-side LO at 0 dBm at 25 °C with RF/IF = 1900/50, 2200/50, and 1900/300 MHz.
2. IIP3 is measured with Δf = 1 MHz with RFin = 0 dBm / tone.
3. LO is injected with 0 dBm.
4. This refers to the operating current under LO drive. The current can be reduced by increasing the value of the R2 resistor slightly.
