GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The HMC219B is an ultraminiature, general-purpose, double
balanced mixer in an 8-lead plastic surface mini small outline
package with exposed pad (MINI_SO_EP). This passive
monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) mixer is
fabricated in a gallium arsenide (GaAs) metal semiconductor
field effect transistor (MESFET) process and requires no
external components or matching circuitry. The device can be
used as an upconverter, downconverter, biphase demodulator,
or phase comparator from 2.5 GHz to 7.0 GHz.
The HMC219B provides excellent local oscillator (LO) to radio
frequency (RF) isolation and LO to intermediate frequency (IF)
isolation due to optimized balun structures. The RoHS compliant
HMC219B eliminates the need for wire bonding and is compatible
with high volume surface-mount manufacturing techniques. The
consistent MMIC performance improves system operation and
assures regulatory compliance with HiperLAN, U-NII, and ISM.

Stresses at or above those listed under Absolute Maximum
Ratings may cause permanent damage to the product. This is a
stress rating only; functional operation of the product at these
or any other conditions above those indicated in the operational
section of this specification is not implied. Operation beyond
the maximum operating conditions for extended periods may
affect product reliability.
THERMAL RESISTANCE
Thermal performance is directly linked to printed circuit board
(PCB) design and operating environment. Careful attention to
PCB thermal design is required.

1, 3, 6, 8 GND Ground. Connect the package bottom to RF/dc ground. See Figure 3 for the GND interface schematic.
2 LO Local Oscillator. This pin is dc-coupled and matched to 50 Ω. See Figure 4 for the LO interface schematic.
4 NIC Not Internally Connected. Leave this pin floating.
5 IF Intermediate Frequency. This pin is dc-coupled. For applications not requiring operation to dc, externally block
this pin using a series capacitor with a value chosen to pass the necessary IF frequency range. For operation to
dc, this pin must not source or sink more than 6 mA of current or device nonfunction and possible device failure
results. See Figure 5 for the IF interface schematic.

THEORY OF OPERATION
The HMC219B is a general-purpose, double balanced mixer in
an 8-lead, MINI_SO_EP, RoHS-compliant package that can be
used as an upconverter or a downconverter from 2.5 GHz to
7.0 GHz.
When used a downconverter, the HMC219B downconverts RF
between 2.5 GHz and 7.0 GHz to IF between dc and 3 GHz.
When used as an upconverter, the mixer upconverts IF between
dc and 3 GHz to RF between 2.5 GHz and 7.0 GHz.
The mixer provides excellent LO to RF and LO to IF isolation
due to optimized balun structures. The HMC219B requires no
external components or matching circuitry. The RoHS compliant
HMC219B eliminates the need for wire bonding and is compatible
with high volume, surface-mount manufacturing techniques.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
TYPICAL APPLICATION CIRCUIT
Figure 83 shows the typical application circuit for the HMC219B.
The HMC219B is a passive device and does not require any
external components. The LO and RF pins are internally
dc-coupled. When IF operation is not required until dc, use an
ac-coupled capacitor at the IF port. When IF operation to dc is
required, do not exceed the IF source and sink the current rating
specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings section.
Figure 83. Typical Application Circuit
EVALUATION PCB INFORMATION
RF circuit design techniques must be implemented for the
evaluation board PCB shown in Figure 84. Signal lines must
have 50 Ω impedance, and the package ground leads and
exposed pad must connect directly to the ground plane, similar to
what is shown in Figure 84. Use a sufficient number of via holes
to connect the top and bottom ground planes. The evaluation
circuit board shown in Figure 84 is available from Analog
Devices, Inc., upon request. Reference EV1HMC219BMS8G
when ordering the evaluation PCB assembly. The bill of
materials for the evaluation PCB is shown in Table 5.
