MACOM’s MA4EX900L-1226 is a silicon monolithic double balanced low barrier mixer in a low cost surface mount 8 lead plastic MSOP package. The die uses MACOM’s unique HMICTM silicon/glass process to achieve low loss passive elements while retaining the advantages of low barrier silicon Schottky diodes. These mixers are well suited for high volume wireless and cellular applications where small size and repeatability are required. Typical applications include frequency conversion, modulation, and demodulation for receivers and transmitters in both portable cellular and base station applications.
