Functional Diagram
General Description
The HMC213AMs8(e) is a ultra miniature double-
balanced mixer in 8 lead plastic surface mount
package (MsOP). This passive MMiC mixer is
constructed of GaAs schottky diodes and novel
planar transformer baluns on the chip. The device can
be used as an upconverter, downconverter, biphase
(de)modulator, or phase comparator. The consistent
MMiC performance will improve system operation and
assure regulatory compliance.
