Preliminary

The Sirenza Microdevices’ STM-3116 is a high linearity

active mixer for use in a wide variety of communication

systems covering the 2100-2500 MHz frequency bands.

This device operates from a single 5V supply and provides

17 dB of conversion gain while requiring only 0dBm input

to theintegratedLO driver. TheSTM-3116alsoincludes an

integrated on chip IF amplifier and is fabricated using Sili-

con Germanium (SiGe) device technology.

The RF and LO ports can be driven differential or single

ended. Each broadband port has been designed to mini-

mize performance degradation while operating into highly

reactive components such as SAW filters. The device is

packagedinan industrystandard16pin TSSOP with

exposed paddle for superb RF and thermal ground.
