Description
M/A-COM’s MD54-0007 is a passive mixer that
achieves the performance of a double balanced
diode mixer in an ultra-miniature SOT-25 package.
The MD54-0007 is ideally suited for use where high
level RF signals and very wide dynamic range are
required. Typical applications include frequency up/
down conversion, modulation and demodulation in
receivers and transmitters for basestation and
portable systems.
The MD54-0007 employs GaAs FETs as mixing
elements to achieve very wide dynamic range in a
low cost plastic package. The mixer operates with
LO drive levels of +13 dBm to +18 dBm. The LO
port may be externally tuned for operation in various
frequency bands.
M/A-COM’s MD54-0007 is fabricated using a mature
0.5 micron gate length GaAs MESFET process. The
process features full passivation for increased per-
formance and reliability.

Handling Procedures
Please observe the following precautions to avoid
damage:
Static Sensitivity
Gallium Arsenide Integrated Circuits are sensitive
to electrostatic discharge (ESD) and can be
damaged by static electricity. Proper ESD control
techniques should be used when handling these
devices.
