M8T / M8TC Load Insensitive Mixer Rev. V3 Features • • • • • • Product Image LO 0.001 to 3.4 GHz RF 0.001 to 3.4 GHz IF 0.001 to 2 GHz LO Drive +10 dBm (nominal) Insensitive To VSWR Mismatch High Intercept Point +18 dBm (typ) Description The M8T is a termination insensitive mixer, designed for use in military, wireless and test equipment applications. The design utilizes Schottky bridge quad diodes, broadband ferrite baluns and internal loads to provide excellent performance without degradation due to external VSWR mismatches. Environmental screening available to MIL-STD-883, MIL-STD-202 or MIL-DTL-28837, consult factory.
