General Description
The HMC292 chip is a miniature passive GaAs MMIC double-balanced mixer which can be used as an upconverter or downconverter from 18 - 32 GHz in a small chip area of 0.66 mm2. Excellent isolations are provided by on-chip baluns, which require no external components and no DC bias. All data is measured with the chip in a 50 ohm test fi xture connected via 0.076 mm (3 mil) ribbon bonds of minimal length <0.31 mm (<12 mils).

FEATUREs
   Input IP3: +19 dBm
   LO / RF Isolation: 36 dB
   Passive: No DC Bias Required
   Small Size: 0.58 mm x 1.04 mm

Typical Applications
The HMC292 is ideal for:
• Microwave Point to Point Radios
• LMDS
• SATCOM
