Ideal for high-bit-rate transmitters and receivers used in point-to-point, satellite communications and LAN applications

Richardson RFPD Inc. announced today the availability and full design support capabilities for a new low passive mixer from M/A-COM Technology Solutions.

The MAMX-011021 features 8 dB of conversion loss and +23 dBm of input intercept point (IIP3) and is offered in a 1.5 mm x 1.2 mm TDFN 6-lead plastic package.

The RF, LO and IF frequency ranges are 5 to 35 GHz, 3 to 33 GHz and DC to 4.5 GHz, respectively. The new mixer can be used for lower sideband (LSB) or upper sideband (USB) mixing, and two mixers can be combined in a quadrature configuration for optimal image rejection.

The high linearity MAMX-011021 is ideally suited for high-bit-rate transmitters and receivers used in point-to-point, satellite communications and LAN applications.
