HMC483MS8G / 483MS8GE v01.0710 MIXERS - HIGH IP3 - SMT 10 HIGH IP3 GaAs MMIC MIXER with INTEGRATED LO AMPLIFIER, 0.7 - 1.5 GHz Typical Applications Features The HMC483MS8G / HMC483MS8GE is ideal for: +33 dBm Input IP3 * Cellular/3G Conversion Loss: 9 dB * GSM, GPRS & EDGE Low LO Drive: -4 to +4 dBm * CDMA & WCDMA Single Positive Supply: 5V @ 50 mA * Cable Modem Termination Systems Ultra Small MSOP Package: 14.8mm2 Included in the HMC-DK003 Designer's Kit Functional Diagram General Description The HMC483MS8G & HMC483MS8GE are high dynamic range passive MMIC mixers with integrated LO amplifiers in plastic surface mount 8 lead Mini Small Outline Packages (MSOP) covering 0.7 to 1.5 GHz. Excellent input IP3 performance of +33 dBm for down conversion and +30 dBm for up conversion is provided for 2.5G & 3G GSM/CDMA applications at an LO drive of 0 dBm. With an input 1 dB compression of +24 dBm, the RF port will accept a wide range of input signal levels. Conversion loss is 9 dB typical. The DC to 350 MHz IF frequency response will satisfy GSM/CDMA transmit or receive frequency plans configured for low side LO. The HMC483MS8G(E) are pin for pin compatible with the HMC485MS8G(E) which are 1.7 - 2.2 GHz mixers with LO amplifiers.
