Description
M/A-COM's MA4EX600L-1225T is a silicon monolithic
4.2 – 6.0 GHz double balanced mixer in a low cost
miniature surface mount SOT-25 package. The die uses
M/A-COM’s unique HMIC silicon/glass process to realize
low loss passive elements while retaining the advantages of
low barrier silicon Schottky diodes.

Applications
These mixers are well suited for high volume WLL and
WLAN applications where small size and repeatability are
required. Typical applications include frequency
conversion, modulation, and demodulation in wireless
receivers and transmitters.
