BM831

RF Mixers Overview

The BM831 is a GaAs MMIC mixer designed for the 0.7 GHz to 1.4 GHz frequency range. It features an integrated local oscillator (LO) amplifier and delivers a typical conversion loss of 8.8 dB with a third-order input intercept point (IIP3) of 31.7 dBm. The component is housed in an 8-MSOP package, supporting up/down conversion functions for RF applications.

• W-CDMA up/down converters

RF Mixers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet revision and ordering suffix when sourcing components. Confirm that the received part matches the 8-MSOP package and GaAs MMIC specifications. Check for any manufacturer notices regarding parameter changes or discontinuation status prior to finalizing procurement orders.

RF Mixers Selection Notes

Select this component for systems requiring operation within the 0.7 GHz to 1.4 GHz band. The integrated LO amplifier reduces external component count. Ensure the application requires the specified 8.8 dB conversion loss and 31.7 dBm IIP3 levels to meet system linearity and sensitivity requirements.
