Description

The CHM1291 is a multifunction chip (MFC) which integrates a LO buffer amplifier and a sub-harmonically balanced diodes mixer for 2LO suppression and image rejection. It is usable both for up-conversion and down-conversion. It is designed for a wide range of applications, typically commercial communication systems for broadband local access (LMDS). The backside of the chip is both RF and DC grounded. This helps simplify the assembly process.
