AMGP-6551 40.5 - 43.5 GHz SMT Packaged Up-Converter Data Sheet Description Features The AMGP-6551 is a surface mount packaged broadband Up-converter that combines a sub-harmonic, SSB mixer with a variable gain amplifier. It is designed for use at frequencies between 37.5 GHz and 43.5 GHz and provides 10 dB of conversion gain with >20 dB gain control dynamic range. This Up-converter required +20 dBm LO drive level, and it supports IF from DC to 3 GHz. OIP3 of +20 and +16 dBm are achieved at 40.5 and 43.5 GHz respectively. 5 x 5 mm surface mount package 2 3 8 4 7 6 5 LO frequency range from 18.5 to 23.5 GHz IF frequency range from DC to 3 GHz +20 dBm LO driver power 10 dB Conversion Gain 20 dB Dynamic Range Functional Block Diagram 1 RF frequency range from 40.5 to 43.5 GHz +20 dBm Output IP3 @ 40.5 GHz, and +16 dBm @ 43.5 GHz Pin Function 1 IF1 Vdd = 3.5 V and Idd = 300 mA 2 Vd1 1 to 0 V Control voltage (Vc) 3 IF2 4 RF_OUT 5 Vd3 6 Vc 7 Vd2 8 RF_IN Application Microwave Radio Systems Package Diagram IF1 1 Attention: Observe Precautions for handling electrostatic sensitive devices.
