Aerospace, GaAs, MMIC, Double-Balanced Mixer, 1.8 GHz to 5 GHz

The ADH128S is a double-balanced mixer which can be used as an upconverter or downconverter. It is a passive diode/balun type mixer with high dynamic range in which the Noise Figure (SSB) is essentially equal to the conversion loss. The ADH128S can handle larger signal levels than most active mixers due to the high third order intercept and it provides exceptional balance in the circuit resulting in high LO/RF and LO/IF isolations. The ADH128S can operate over a wide LO drive input levels of +9 dBm to +15 dBm.
