General Description
Mimix Broadband’s 35.0-45.0 GHz packaged receiver has a
noise figure of 4.0 dB and 5.0 dBm Input Third Order
Intercept across the band. This device integrates a three
stage LNA followed by an image reject resistive pHEMT
mixer and includes an integrated LO doubler and buffer
amplifier. The use of integrated LO doubler and LO buffer
amplifier makes the provision of the LO easier than for
fundamental mixers at these frequencies. I and Q mixer
outputs are provided and an external 90 degree hybrid is
required to select the desired sideband. The device comes
in a 7x7mm QFN package that is RoHS compliant. This
device is well suited for Millimeter-wave Point-to-Point
Radio, LMDS, SATCOM and VSAT applications.
