Mini-Circuits high efficiency phase detectors are the only units in the world offering a figure-of-merit greater than 125. The figure-of-merit (M), or efficiency of a phase detector can be defined as the ratio of maximum DC output voltage (in mV) divided by the RF...

Phase detector Provides a DC output voltage proportional to the difference in phase between two RF input signals. A double-balanced mixer can perform as a phase detector when the LO and RF signal inputs are at the same frequency. DC offset The small amount of voltage...
