Description
Avago Technologies’ IAM-93516 is a high linearity GaAs FET Mixer using 0.5um enhancement mode pHEMT technology. This device houses in a 3x3 LPCC package. The IAM-93516 has a built-in LO buffer amplifier and an IF amplification stage that serve as an ideal solution for reducing board space and delivering excellent high IIP3, gain and isolation with a low LO drive power. The device is designed with a differential configuration to provide good noise immunity.
