20.0-38.0

Mimix Broadband's 20.0-38.0 GHz GaAs MMIC fundamental balanced mixer has been optimized for use as an up-converter. 20.0-38.0 has a conversion loss of 8.0 dB with a +25.0 dBm input third order intercept point. IF and IF mixer inputs are provided through an external 180 degree hybrid. This MMIC uses Mimix Broadband's 0.15 m GaAs PHEMT device model technology. 20.0-38.0 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.
