M2E / M2EC / SM2E Double-Balanced Mixer Rev. V4 Features • • • • • • Product Image LO 10 TO 1000 MHz RF 10 TO 1000 MHz F DC TO 600 MHz LO DRIVE: +20 dBm (nominal) HIGH INTERCEPT POINT: +30 dBm (TYP.) HERMETICALLY SEALED Description The M2E is a double balanced mixer, designed for use in military, commercial, and test equipment applications. The design utilizes Schottky ring quad diodes and broadband ferrite baluns to attain excellent performance. This mixer can also be used as a phase detector and/or bi-phase modulator since the IF port is DC coupled to the diodes. Environmental screening is available to MILSTD-883, MIL-STD-202, or MIL-DTL-28837, consult factory.
