MY84C

RF Mixers Overview

The MY84C is a connectorized double-balanced mixer from MACOM, utilizing Schottky ring quad diodes for high-performance frequency conversion. It operates with a Local Oscillator (LO) and Radio Frequency (RF) range of 1.8 to 10.0 GHz, while the Intermediate Frequency (IF) spans from DC to 1000 MHz. The device features SMA connectors for interfacing. It is designed for LO drive levels between 12 dBm and 18 dBm. The component is built on Silicon technology and is packaged in bulk configuration.

RF Mixers Feature Summary

• Double-balanced architecture utilizing Schottky ring quad diodes
• Connectorized design with SMA interfaces
• Wide RF and LO operational bandwidth up to 10.0 GHz

RF Mixers Applications

• Military communication systems
• Commercial test equipment
• General-purpose frequency conversion applications

RF Mixers Procurement Notes

Verify RoHS compliance status as documentation indicates non-compliance. Confirm lead times and factory production schedules directly with authorized distributors or MACOM sales representatives. Ensure SMA connector compatibility with system requirements before procurement.

RF Mixers Selection Notes

Select this model when a connectorized solution is required for the 1.8-10.0 GHz band. Consider the MY84 variant if surface-mount packaging is preferred over the connectorized MY84C form factor. Validate that the system LO drive power falls within the specified 12-18 dBm range for optimal performance.

RF Mixers Part Context

The MY84C represents the connectorized version of the MY84 series double-balanced mixers. While the MY84 is available in surface-mount packages like QFN and TDFN, the MY84C provides fixed SMA connections. Both variants share the same core Schottky diode technology and electrical specifications for military and commercial use.

RF Mixers Replacement Considerations

The MY84 is the base model for this series; however, it differs in package type. No direct pin-compatible substitutes are documented in the provided data. Verify interface requirements carefully when considering alternative models.
