## Details

### Configuration

- Frequency Range:
    - RF and LO: 4-8 GHz
    - IF: DC-2 GHz
- Nominal LO Power: 7-13 dBm
- Conversion Loss: 5 dB (Typ.) / 6 dB (Max.)
- LO-to-RF Isolation: 40 dB (Typ.) / 30 dB (Min.)
- RF-to-IF Isolation: 30 dB (Typ.)
- Input IP3: 13 dBm (Typ.)

## Function

Converts radio frequency (RF) and local oscillator (LO) inputs, operating from 4 to 8 GHz, into an intermediate frequency (IF) output spanning DC to 2 GHz. It achieves high LO-to-RF isolation, typically 40 dB, suppressing unwanted signals and enabling efficient frequency translation for signal downconversion or upconversion applications.

## Platform

RF and microwave test systems; high-frequency communication analysis setups; radar and electronic warfare test benches; integrated within signal synthesis and frequency conversion modules; interfaces via SMA connectors; compatible with low-level mixer signal chains requiring high isolation between LO and RF ports.

## Application

A passive, double-balanced mixer designed for frequency up-conversion or down-conversion applications. It operates with RF and LO inputs from 4 to 8 GHz and produces an IF output from DC to 2 GHz. The device provides high port-to-port isolation, with a typical LO-to-RF isolation of 40 dB, minimizing signal leakage. Connections are made via RF, LO, and IF ports for integration into microwave systems such as satellite transponders, radar receivers, and electronic warfare equipment.
