Introduction: RF mixers are devices with electrical properties that allow them to convert a radio frequency (RF) signal to a different frequency. In essence, an RF mixer takes two input signals (one is often referred to as the local oscillator signal) and creates a third as an output.

The HMC220AMS8ETR is a high performance RF mixer from the Analog Microelectronics division of Analog Devices. It is designed to operate from 500 kHz to 6 GHz and is capable of accepting wide dynamic range input signals. This device is ideal for many full-duplex applications, including cellular base stations, WiFi transceivers, satellite receivers and other related RF applications.

Application Field: The HMC220AMS8ETR can be used in various radio frequency (RF) applications, including cellular base stations, WiFi transceivers, satellite receivers, and other related RF applications. It is particularly suitable for full-duplex applications, as it has a wide dynamic range input signal capability, as well as low noise and wide linearity. Additionally, it is also useful in directional couplers, duplexers, and other related RF systems.

Working Principle: The HMC220AMS8ETR is a double balanced diode mixer that adds the incoming RF signal to an incoming local oscillator signal. As a result, two new frequencies are generated: the sum, which is the input frequency plus the local oscillator frequency; and the difference, which is the input frequency minus the local oscillator frequency. The local oscillator signal is buffered by the mixer before it is combined with the RF input.

The device also contains an automatic gain control (AGC) circuit that provides additional gain adjustment depending on the signal level. This helps to ensure a consistent output level in applications that receive varying input signals. A low frequency filter is included to reduce current consumption and ensure that low-frequency signals are removed.

Performance: The HMC220AMS8ETR has a wide dynamic range with a minimum input of -20 dBm and a maximum input of +20 dBm. The noise figure is less than 5 dB at 1 GHz, and the linearity performance is greater than -17 dBc at full power. The device provides good output level linearity and low current consumption.

Conclusion: The HMC220AMS8ETR is a versatile, high performance and low noise RF mixer from Analog Devices. It can be used in many RF applications, including cellular base stations, WiFi transceivers, satellite receivers and other related RF applications. With a wide dynamic range input signal capability, low noise figure and wide linearity, it is an ideal choice for many full-duplex applications. Additionally, its low current consumption feature makes it suitable for use in directional couplers and duplexers.
