M1-0212LE-2_Double-Balanced Mixers

NOT RECOMMENDED FOR NEW DESIGN

Device Overview

General Description

M1 double balanced mixers are hybrid assemblies that have been hand-tuned to feature low conversion loss and high isolations and a DC IF response. M1 mixers have generally been replaced with MM1 mixers with superior performance, repeatability, and availability. M1 mixers are still used in legacy systems and are suitable for laboratory use.

Features

LO/RF 2.0 to 12.0 GHz
IF DC to 2.0 GHz
6.0 dB Typical Conversion Loss
35 dB Typical LO to RF Isolation
Ultra-Broadband LO and RF
