6 GHz to 12 GHz, Double-Balanced High IP3 Mixer

The ADH663S is a general purpose double balanced mixer that can be used as an upconverter or downconverter between 6 and 12 GHz. This passive mixer is fabricated in a GaAs MESFET process, requires no DC Bias and no external components or matching circuitry.

The ADH663S provides excellent LO to RF and LO to IF isolation due to optimized balun structures and operates with LO drive levels as low as +17 dBm. The ADH663S eliminates the need for wire bonding and is compatible with high volume surface mount manufacturing techniques.
