General Description
Mimix Broadband’s 13.0-25.0 GHz GaAs MMIC
fundamental image reject Kowari mixer can be used as
an up- or down-converter. The device has a conversion
loss of 7.0 dB with 20.0 dB image rejection across the
band. I and Q mixer outputs are provided and an external
90 degree hybrid is required to select the desired
sideband. This MMIC uses Mimix Broadband’s 2
µm
GaAs
HBT device model technology, and is based upon
electron beam lithography to ensure high repeatability
and uniformity. The chip has surface passivation to
protect and provide a rugged part with backside via
holes and gold metallization to allow either a conductive
epoxy or eutectic solder die attach process. This device is
well suited for Millimeter-wave Point-to-Point Radio,
LMDS, SATCOM and VSAT applications.
