Mimix Broadband's 10.0-18.0 GHz GaAs MMIC transmitter provides

+11 dBm output P1dB compression and 15 dB image rejection

across the band. This device is an image reject, balanced mixer

followed by a two stage output amplifier. The image reject mixer

reduces the need for unwanted sideband filtering before the power

amplifier. I and Q mixer inputs are provided and an external 90

degree hybrid is required to select the desired sideband. This device

comes in a 7x7mm QFN surface mount laminate package which is

RoHS compliant. This device is well suited for Millimeter-wave

Point-to-Point Radio, LMDS, SATCOM and VSAT applications.
