 Four
new MMIC Upconverter and Downconverter devices from RFMD offer high
performance and low cost for high frequency applications. The RFUV1702
and RFUV1703 Upconverters incorporate an integrated frequency multiplier
(x2), LO buffer amplifier, a balanced single sideband (image rejection)
mixer followed by variable gain amplifier, and DC-decoupling capacitors.
The RFRX1701 and RFRX1702 Downconverters incorporate an image rejection
mixer, LO buffer amplifier, and integrated LNA. Each device is packaged
in a 5 x 5mm QFN to simplify both system-level board design and volume
assembly.
The combination of high performance and low cost packaging
makes each of these devices a cost effective solution, ideally suited
for point-to-point radio and satellite communications.
