RFMD today said it has added four new high linearity, low noise I/Q converters for 9-16GHz applications and that the new MMIC Upconverter and Downconverter devices offer high performance and low cost for high frequency applications.

The RFRX1001 is a 10GHz - 15.4GHz GaAs pHEMT downconverter, incorporating an integrated LNA, image rejection mixer, LO buffer amplifier, and DC decoupling capacitors. The combination of high performance and low cost packaging makes the RFRX1001 a cost effective solution, suited to both current and next generation Point-to-Point and VSAT applications. RFRX1001 is packaged in a 5mm x 5mm QFN to simplify both system level board design and volume assembly.

The RFRX1002 is a 9GHz to 14GHz GaAs pHEMT downconverter, incorporating an integrated LNA, image rejection mixer, LO buffer amplifier, and DC decoupling capacitors. The RFRX1002 is packaged in a 5mm x 5mm QFN to simplify both system level board design and volume assembly.

RFMD's RFUV1002 is a 9GHz to 14GHz GaAs pHEMT up-converter, incorporating an integrated LO buffer amplifier, a balanced single-side band (image rejection) mixer followed by a variable gain amplifier and a DC decoupling capacitor. The RFUV1002 is packaged in a 5mm x 5mm QFN to simplify both system level board design and volume assembly.

RFMD's RFUV1003 is a 12GHz to 16GHz GaAs pHEMT upconverter, incorporating an integrated LO buffer amplifier, a Balanced Single Side Band (Image rejection) mixer followed by Variable Gain Amplifier, DC decoupling capacitors. The RFUV1003 which is suited to both current and next generation Point-to-Point and VSAT applications is packaged in a 5mm x 5mm QFN to simplify both system level board design and volume assembly.
