The HMC560ALM3 chip is a general-purpose, double balanced mixer that can be used as an upconverter or downconverter from 22 GHz to 38 GHz in a small chip area. This mixer requires no external component or matching circuitry.
The HMC560ALM3 provides excellent local oscillator (LO) to radio frequency (RF) and LO to intermediate frequency (IF) suppression due to optimized balun structures. The mixer operates with LO drive levels above 9 dBm.
