CMD257C4
6-10 GHz (C, X Band) High IP3 I/Q Mixer
Key Features
- High IP3
- Image rejection: 30 dB
- Low conversion loss
- Pb-free RoHS compliant 4x4 mm SMT package
- Wide IF bandwidth
Qorvo's CMD257C4 is a high IP3 I/Q mixer in a leadless surface mount package that can be used as either an image reject mixer or a single sideband upconverter. The CMD257C4 utilizes two double balanced mixer cells and a 90 degree hybrid. An external IF hybrid is needed to complete the image rejection. The CMD257C4 is a much smaller alternative to higher cost hybrid image reject mixers and single sideband upconverter assemblies.
Typical Applications
- Electronic Warfare (EW)
- C Band Radar
- X Band Radar
- Space
- Satellite Communications (Satcom)
- Test & Measurement

Keysight Model Library
This product is included in our Keysight PathWave System Design (SystemVue) and PathWave RF Synthesis (Genesys) compatible component libraries.
X-Microwave Design System
This product is available as an X-Microwave Block (X-MWblock) for evaluation.
X-MWblocks are RF and microwave "drop-in" components that can be used individually for prototyping or in production assemblies. X-MWblocks are easy to test, integrate, align, and configure to 60 GHz and beyond. No messy sweat soldering or silver epoxy processes are required. X-MWblocks are highly characterized with S-parameter models and connect with a patented solder-less interconnect technology.
