Description
M/A-COM’s MA4EX370M-1225 is a silicon monolithic
3.0-4.0 GHz double balanced mixer in a low cost miniature
surface mount SOT-25 package.
The die uses
TM
M/A-COM’s unique HMIC
silicon/glass process to
achieve low loss passive elements while retaining the
advantages of medium barrier silicon Schottky diodes.

Applications
These mixers are well suited for high volume WLL and
WLAN applications where small size and repeatability are
required. Typical applications include frequency
conversion, modulation, and demodulation in wireless
receivers and transmitters.
