Device Overview
General Description
M4 diplexed IF mixers are hybrid assemblies that combine a low frequency IF (to DC) with a multi-decade bandwidth RF and LO. M4 mixers are commonly used for single tone analyzers (such as antenna test systems) with ultra-broad frequency ranges.
Features
- LO/RF 1.0 to 40.0 GHz
- IF DC to 500 MHz
- 9.5 dB Typical Conversion Loss
- 30 dB Typical LO to RF Isolation
- Super-Broadband RF and LO
- Available with 2.40 or 2.92 mm Connectors
