Broadband Dual Channel Downconverter: HMC1190LP6GE

Source: Hittite Microwave Corporation

This broadband dual channel downconverter operates in the 0.7 to 3.5 GHz frequency range and is ideal for applications involving wideband radio receivers, GSM, 3G, and LTE/WiMAX/4G, multiband/multi-standard cellular BTS diversity receivers, MIMI infrastructure receivers, multiband basestations and repeaters, and other applications that require a compact, low power design.

The HMC1190LP6GE Broadband Dual Channel Downconverter features a configurable LO output mute function, Exact Frequency Mode that enables the HMC1190LP6GE to generate fractional frequencies with 0 Hz frequency error, and the ability to synchronously change frequencies without changing phase of the output signal that increases efficiency of digital pre-distortion loops.
