QPX0001
®
6-26 GHz I/Q Mixer
Product Overview
Qorvo’s QPX0001 is a compact, wideband I/Q GaAs
mixer housed in a 3.9 x 3.9 mm air cavity surface mount
ceramic package. Operating over the 6 to 26 GHz
bandwidth, the mixer can be configured as an image reject
mixer, a single sideband upconverter, or a QPSK
modulator/demodulator. The QPX0001 utilizes two double
balanced mixer cells and a 90⁰ hybrid internal to the
MMIC. An external 90⁰ IF hybrid is required to complete
the image rejection or sideband suppression. The
QPX0001 is a much smaller alternative to higher cost
hybrid I/Q Mixers and single sideband upconverter
assemblies.
