ACU50752S3C

The ACU50752 is a Monolithic GaAs IC designed to perform the upconverter functions in a double conversion tuner: gain block, local oscillator and balanced mixer. The specifications meet the requirements of CATV, TV and Cable Modem applications. Supplied in a 16-lead SOIC package and requiring only a single polarity 5 V supply (or 3.5 V, with slightly reduced performance), the IC is well suited in situations where small size, low cost, low auxiliary parts count and a no-compromise performance is important.

It provides tuner manufacturers the opportunity to reduce cost by lowering the component count and decreasing the amount of labor-intensive production alignment steps, while significantly improving performance and reliability.
