GENERAL DESCRIPTION
► Electronic countermeasure (ECM)
► Command, control, communications, and intelligence (C3I)
The ADMV1530 is a general-purpose, double balanced mixer in a
leadless, RoHS compliant, surface-mount technology (SMT) pack-
age that can be used as an upconverter or downconverter between
5 GHz and 30 GHz. The wide bandwidth from 0 GHz to 10 GHz
on the intermediate frequency (IF) port allows for flexible frequency
planning to avoid spurious products. This mixer is fabricated in a
gallium arsenide (GaAs), monolithic microwave integrated circuit
(MMIC) process and requires no external components or matching
circuitry.
The ADMV1530 provides excellent local oscillator (LO) to RF and
LO to IF suppression due to optimized balun structures. The mixer
operates with a typical LO amplitude of 19 dBm. The RoHS-compli-
ant ADMV1530 eliminates the need for wire bonding, allowing the
use of surface-mount manufacturing techniques.
The ADMV1530 is available in a compact, 4 mm × 4 mm, 18-ter-
minal land grid array (LGA) package and operates over a −40°C
to+85°C temperature range.
