Waveguide Frequency Mixer Series

Our new millimeter wave (mm-wave) waveguide frequency mixer series are available in six down-conversion and six up-conversion models that cover full Ka, Q, U, V, E, and W bands. Waveguide frequency mixer designs utilize high performance GaAs Schottky Barrier Beam Lead Diodes in balanced configurations that require a +13 dBm LO drive and display low levels of conversion loss.

These waveguide mixer components, also referred to as waveguide converters, are a key building block component of mm-wave receivers used to down-convert very high frequency signals to usable RF frequencies for cost effective signal processing. They are also very useful for test and measurement applications to convert signals to frequency levels that can be measured with available equipment. Similarly, these frequency mixers for waveguide can be used to efficiently up-convert RF signals to millimeter wave frequencies for point-to-point radio and millimeter wave radar applications.

Our waveguide frequency mixer product line operates over RF and LO frequency bands ranging from 26.5 to 110 GHz with an IF frequency covering DC to 18 GHz. Depending on the model, conversion loss ranges from 6 to 9 dB typical with 20 dB typical RF to LO isolation. Maximum RF input power is +5 dBm and performance is specified over an operating temperature of 0°C to +50°C. Rugged gold plated package designs are thermally stable for high reliability and feature compact dimensions with integrated waveguide sizes ranging from WR-28 to WR-10. As with all other over 40,000 RF, microwave and millimter wave components, these wave guide frequency mixers are in-stock and ship the same day.
