General Description
The HMC399MS8(E) is a high dynamic range
passive MMIC mixer in plastic surface mount 8 lead
Mini Small Outline Package (MSOP) covering 700
to 1000 MHz. Excellent input IP3 performance of
+35 dBm for down conversion and +32 dBm for
up conversion is provided for 2.5G & 3G GSM/
CDMA based cellular applications at an LO drive
of +17 dBm. With a 1 dB compression of +23 dBm,
the RF port will accept a wide range of input signal
levels. Conversion loss is 8.5 dB typical and LO
isolations are maintained at 23 to 35 dB. This
miniature single-ended monolithic GaAs FET mixer
requires only one external inductor to optimize the
LO frequency response. The 50 to 250 MHz IF
frequency response will satisfy many cellular
transmit or receive frequency plans. The
HMC399MS8(E) input IP3 performance coupled
with its high P1dB rivals traditional active FET mixers
while offering a much smaller 14.8mm

standard IC
footprint and no DC bias.
