General Description
The HMC581LP6 &HMC581LP6E are high linearity Dual Down Converter Receiver ICs that operate from 800 - 960 MHz and deliver a +26 dBm input third order intercept point for UMTS & GSM applications. The passive mixer outputs and high dynamic range IF amplifi er inputs are positioned so that an external IF fi lter can be placed in series between them. The converter provides a gain of 9 dB and typical single side band noise fi gure of 13 dB. The IC operates from a single +5V supply consuming 260 mA of current while requiring only 0 dBm LO drive. The design requires no external baluns, no external matching and supports IF frequencies between 50 and 300 MHz.
