M1005-BD

Mimix Broadband's 37.0-46.0 GHz GaAs MMIC balanced image reject mixer can be used as an up- or down-converter. The device M1005-BD has a conversion loss of 12.0 dB with a 20.0 dB image rejection across the band. I and Q mixer outputs are provided and an external 90 degree hybrid is required to select the desired sideband. This MMIC uses Mimix Broadband's 0.15 m GaAs PHEMT device model technology, and is based upon electron beam lithography to ensure high repeatability and uniformity. The chip M1005-BD 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 M1005-BD is well suited for Millimeter-wave Point-to-Point Radio, LMDS, SATCOM and VSAT applications.
