Overview
The ADMV1010AEZ-R7 is a compact, gallium arsenide (GaAs) design, monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC), I/Q downconverter produced by Analog Devices, Inc. This component is optimized for point-to-point microwave radio designs and operates within the 12.6 GHz to 15.4 GHz frequency range. It is designed as a low noise, upper sideband (low-side local oscillator) image reject downconverter, providing 15 dB of conversion gain and 25 dB of image rejection. The ADMV1010AEZ-R7 features a radio frequency (RF) low noise amplifier (LNA) followed by an in-phase/quadrature (I/Q) double balanced mixer, and it includes a driver amplifier for the local oscillator (LO). The component is packaged in a thermally enhanced, 4.9 mm × 4.9 mm, 32-terminal leadless chip carrier (LCC) with an exposed pad, making it suitable for surface-mount manufacturing assemblies.
