FEATURES
DESCRIPTIO
The LT®5519 mixer is designed to meet the high linearity
requirements of wireless and cable infrastructure trans-
mission systems. A high speed, internally 50Ω matched,
LO amplifier drives a double-balanced mixer core, allow-
ing the use of a low power, single-ended LO source. An RF
output transformer is integrated, thus eliminating the
need for external matching components at the RF output,
whilereducingsystemcost, componentcount, boardarea
and system-level variations. The IF port can be easily
matched to a broad range of frequencies for use in many
different applications.
