R1011-BD

Mimix Broadband’s 4.5-10.5 GHz receiver has a noise figure of

1.6 dB and 14.0 dB conversion gain across the band. The device

integrates an LNA, image reject mixer and LO buffer amplifier

within a single, compact MMIC. The image reject mixer

eliminates the need for a bandpass filter after the LNA to

remove thermal noise at the image frequency. I and Q mixer

outputs are provided and an external 90 degree hybrid is

required to select the desired sideband. This device uses Mimix

Broadband’s GaAs PHEMT device model technology, and is

based upon electron beam lithography to ensure high

repeatability and uniformity. This device is well suited for

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