General Description
The HMC8327LG is
In Package (SiP)
a
fully integrated System
in-phase/quadrature (I/Q)
downconverter that operates between an RF input
frequency range of 81 GHz to 86 GHz and an IF output
frequency range of DC to 2 GHz. This device provides
a small signal conversion gain of 8 to 13 dB with 30
dBc of image rejection. The HMC8327LG utilizes a
low noise amplifier followed by an image rejection
mixer which is driven by a 6x LO multiplier. Differential
I and Q mixer outputs are provided for direct
conversion applications. Alternatively, the outputs can
be combined using an external 90° hybrid and two
external 180° hybrids for single-ended applications.
Electrical Specifications, TA = -40°C to +85°C, IF = 1000 MHz, LO = 4 dBm,
VDLNA = 3 V, VD_AMP = 4 V, VD_MULT = 1.5 V, VG_MIXER = -1 V [1]
