GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The ADMV1009 is a compact, gallium arsenide (GaAs) design,

monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC), upper sideband

(USB), differential, upconverter in a RoHS compliant package

optimized for point to point microwave radio designs that

operate in the 12.7 GHz to 15.4 GHz frequency range.

The ADMV1009 provides 21 dB of conversion gain with 20 dB

of sideband rejection. The ADMV1009 uses a radio frequency (RF)

amplifier preceded by a passive, double balanced mixer, where a

driver amplifier drives the local oscillator (LO). IF1 and IF2 mixer

inputs are provided, and an external 180° balun is needed to

drive the IF pins differentially. The ADMV1009 is a much

smaller alternative to hybrid style single sideband (SSB)

upconverter assemblies and eliminates the need for wire

bonding by allowing the use of surface-mount manufacturing

assemblies.

The ADMV1009 upconverter comes in a compact, thermally

enhanced, 4.9 mm × 4.9 mm LCC package. The ADMV1009

operates over the −40°C to +85°C temperature range.
