HMC485AMS8GETR

RF Mixers Overview

The HMC485AMS8GETR is a high dynamic range passive MMIC mixer manufactured by Analog Devices Inc., featuring an integrated local oscillator (LO) amplifier. It operates within the frequency range of 1.7 to 2.4 GHz and is housed in a plastic surface-mount 8-lead Mini Small Outline package (MSOP). The device incorporates a temperature-compensated bias network to stabilize quiescent current across an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C, ensuring consistent performance under varying thermal conditions.
