The HFA3663 UpConverter with Gain Control is a monolithic bipolar device for up conversion applications in the 2.0GHz to 2.3GHz range. Manufactured in the Intersil UHF1X process, the device consists of a double balanced mixer followed by a variable gain power preamp. An energy saving, TTL Compatible, power enable input provides on/off bias current control to the mixer and amplifier. The device requires low drive levels from the local oscillator and is housed in a small outline 20 lead SSOP package ideally suited for PCMCIA card applications.
