Specifications

Electrical Specifications

The electrical specifications apply at TA=+25°C in a 50Ω system. Typical data shown is for the connectorized S package mixer used in the forward direction with a +9 dBm sine wave input. Specifications shown for configuration A (B).

Min and Max limits apply only to our connectorized units and are guaranteed at TA=+25°C. All bare die are 100% DC tested and visually inspected.

MM1-0212L Mixer Package Diagram
MM1-0212L MMIC Double Balanced Mixer

MM1-0212L is a low power GaAs MMIC double balanced mixer that operates at LO powers as a low as +1 dBm. MM1-0212L is a low frequency, low power S band mixer that works well as both an up and down converter to through X band. This mixer offers low conversion loss and high LO to RF isolations at extremely low LO drives. The sister MM1-0212H and MM1-0212S are recommended for high linearity applications. The MM1-0212L is available as both wire bondable die and as connectorized modules.
