Mimix Broadband’s two stage 8.0-12.0/16.0-24.0 GHz

GaAs MMIC doubler has a +16.0 dBm output drive

and is an excellent LO doubler that can be used to

drive fundamental mixer devices. It is also well suited

to drive Mimix's XR1002 receiver device. This MMIC

uses Mimix Broadband’s 0.15 µm GaAs PHEMT device

model technology, and is based upon electron beam

lithography to ensure high repeatability and

uniformity. The chip has surface passivation to protect

and provide a rugged part with backside via holes

and gold metallization to allow either a conductive

epoxy or eutectic solder die attach process. This

device is well suited for Millimeter-wave

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

applications.

recommended to keep channel temperature as low as

possible for maximum life.
