Key Features
- Double-balanced GaAs active mixer covering 1.5 GHz to 4.5 GHz RF range for S-band and C-band frequency conversion
- Low conversion loss of –8 dB with high LO-to-RF isolation greater than 30 dB suppresses LO leakage in dense RF front-ends
- Output IP3 of +7 dBm enables high-linearity upconverter stages for point-to-point microwave radios and test equipment
- 8-pin MSOP package measuring 3 mm × 3 mm integrates a complete mixer cell with minimal external passives
Applications
The HMC213BMS8GETR is deployed as an upconverter or downconverter in S-band and C-band radar receivers, satellite communication ground terminals, and point-to-point microwave backhaul transceivers operating between 1.5 GHz and 4.5 GHz. Its high LO-to-RF isolation of greater than 30 dB makes it well suited for frequency-division duplex systems where LO leakage into the antenna path must be minimized. The small MSOP package reduces RF PCB area in software-defined radio platforms and instrumentation modules where multiple mixer stages must coexist on the same board.

Frequently Asked Questions
What RF frequency range does the HMC213BMS8GETR cover, and is it suitable for S-band radar?
The HMC213BMS8GETR covers an RF range of 1.5 GHz to 4.5 GHz, which spans the full IEEE S-band (2–4 GHz) and extends into the lower C-band. This makes it directly applicable to S-band weather radar receivers, 2.4 GHz ISM-band transceivers, and 3.5 GHz 5G sub-6 GHz RF front-end modules without additional filtering.
How does the HMC213BMS8GETR's conversion loss compare to a passive diode mixer at S-band frequencies?
The HMC213BMS8GETR achieves approximately –8 dB conversion loss, which is comparable to a passive diode double-balanced mixer but without requiring the high LO drive level (+17 dBm) that passive mixers typically need. The GaAs active topology drives the LO port with as little as 0 dBm, reducing LO amplifier requirements and saving 3–5 dB of system gain budget in cascaded receiver chains.
What LO-to-RF isolation does the HMC213BMS8GETR provide, and why does that matter in a duplex radio?
The HMC213BMS8GETR provides greater than 30 dB of LO-to-RF isolation. In a frequency-division duplex radio, LO leakage appearing at the antenna must remain below –100 dBm per regulatory requirements; at 30 dB isolation from a 0 dBm LO drive, the leaked signal is –30 dBm at the mixer output, which subsequent band-pass filtering can easily attenuate to compliant levels without adding a dedicated LO isolation stage.
For a compact 3.5 GHz software-defined radio board, how much space does the HMC213BMS8GETR require?
The 8-pin MSOP package measures approximately 3 mm × 3 mm with a 0.65 mm pin pitch, occupying under 10 mm² of RF PCB area. This compact footprint allows two or more mixer stages to be placed within a 20 mm × 20 mm RF subsection, leaving room for the balun, IF filter, and LO buffer amplifier on a single-layer RF board.
