The amplifier features a single-
ended 50
Ω
match on the input
port. The open collector output is
easily matched with a simple
2 element network, providing
flexible use and good power
added efficiency. The amplifier
can be disabled to allow use of the
mixer alone, reducing the current
draw to around 15 mA. The entire
IC can be put into a standby mode
reducing current consumption to
under 40
µA
from a 3V source.
The SSOP-16 package insures that
the IC occupies a minimal amount
of printed circuit board space.
The HPMX-2006 is manufactured
using Hewlett-Packard’s 30 GHz
ISOSAT-II process which com-
bines stepper lithography, self
alignment, ion implantation
techniques and gold metalization
to produce state-of-the-art RFICs.
