General Description
The HMC304MS8 is a passive IP3 mixer in an 8 lead plastic surface mount Mini Small Outline Package (MSOP). This miniature single balanced MMIC mixer is constructed of GaAs Schottky diodes and novel planar transformer baluns on the chip while not requiring any external components. The RF port is balanced via the MMIC balun while the LO port is connected directly to the diodes. LO isolations are typically 20 to 30 dB. Excellent input IP3 performance of +27 to +32 dBm makes the HMC304MS8 ideal for high dynamic range applications.

FEATUREs
