HMC552LP4 / 552LP4E v03.1210 Typical Applications Features The HMC552LP4 / HMC552LP4E is ideal for Wireless Infrastructure Applications: Input IP3: +25 dBm * PCS / 3G Infrastructure LO to RF Isolation: 30 dB * Base Stations & Repeaters Low Conversion Loss: 8 dB * WiMAX & WiBro Single Positive Supply: +5V @ 62 mA * ISM & Fixed Wireless Robust 1,000V ESD, Class 1C TE Low Input LO Drive: -4 to +4 dBm 24 Lead 4x4mm SMT Package: 16mm2 Functional Diagram General Description B SO LE The HMC552LP4 & HMC552LP4E are high linearity, double-balanced converter ICs that operate from 1.6 to 3.0 GHz and deliver a +25 dBm input third order intercept point. The LO amplifier output and high dynamic range mixer input are positioned so that an external LO filter can be placed in series be-tween them. The converter provides 30 dB of LO to RF isolation and is ideal for upconverter and down-converter applications. The IC operates from a single +5V supply consuming 62 mA of current and accepts a LO drive level of -4 to +4 dBm. The design requires no external baluns and supports IF frequencies between DC and 1 GHz. The HMC552LP4 & HMC552LP4E are pin for pin compatible with the HMC551LP4 & HMC551LP4E, which operate from 0.8 to 1.2 GHz.

An off chip DC blocking capacitor is required. 2, 6 - 9, 11 - 17, 19 - 24 N/C No connection. These pins may be connected to RF ground. Performance will not be affected. 3 BIAS Power supply for the LO amplifier , a Bias resistor is required . Three external bypass capacitors are recommended for optimum performance, as illustrated in the application circuit. 4 GND Backside of package has exposed metal ground paddle that must also be connected to ground. 5 LO This pin is DC coupled and matched to 50 Ohms. An off chip DC blocking capacitor is required. 10 IF This pin is DC coupled. For applications not requiring operation to DC, this port should be DC blocked externally using a series capacitor whose value has been chosen to pass the necessary IF frequency range. For operation to DC, this pin must not source/ sink more than 18 mA of current or die non-function and possible die failure will result. 18 RF This pin is DC coupled and matched to 50 Ohms.
