Select the proper mixer for your needs. There are hundreds of models available. Under-specify and face marginal performance, over-specify and pay for more than you need. Here’s the proper approach. Mixers are abundant in electronic systems ranging from...

The dual-double-balanced configuration of these FET mixers helps to improve dynamic range with reduced conversion loss and noise figure without expending DC bias. Recievers (Rxs) in support of the continually expanding wireless marketplace rely heavily on improved...

First, it’s important to define the significance of input levels. Then, details on the measurement technique will be given. Two-tone, third-order intermodulation distortion (IM) expresses the degree of non-linearity of an electronic device that has a definable...
