General Description
Mimix Broadband’s 35.0-45.0 GHz packaged receiver has a
noise figure of 3.5 dB and 5.0 dBm Input Third Order
Intercept across the band. This device integrates a three
stage LNA followed by an image reject resistive pHEMT
mixer and includes an integrated LO doubler and buffer
amplifier. The use of integrated LO doubler and LO buffer
amplifier makes the provision of the LO easier than for
fundamental mixers at these frequencies. I and Q mixer
outputs are provided and an external 90 degree hybrid is
required to select the desired sideband. The device comes
in a 7x7mm SMT package that is RoHS compliant. This
device is well suited for Millimeter-wave Point-to-Point
Radio, LMDS, SATCOM and VSAT applications.

Recommended Layout
App Note [1] Biasing
- Please refer to the functional block diagram and pin-out table for biasing information. The device is operated by
biasing VD=4.0V with ID=180 mA by adjusting the applied voltage on VG1. VG1 typically requires-0.5V to result in the drain current being
180mA. The nominal input impedance of this gate is 180Ohm, so it should be noted that the nominal gate current will be 2.7mA.
Additionally, a fixed bias of VG2=-0.5V is required to bias the mixer and doubler. Adjusting VG2 above or below this value can adversely affect
conversion gain, image rejection and intercept point performance. It is recommended to use active biasing to keep the currents constant as
the RF power and temperature vary; this gives the most reproducible results. The diagram “Active Bias Circuit” demonstrates a possible
method for active biasing. Depending on the supply voltage available and the power dissipation constraints, the bias circuit may be a single
transistor or a low power operational amplifier, with a low value resistor in series with the drain supply used to sense the current. The gate of
the pHEMT is controlled to maintain correct drain current and thus drain voltage. Typically the gate is protected with Silicon diodes to limit
the applied voltage. Also, make sure to sequence the applied voltage to ensure negative gate bias is available before applying the positive
drain supply
