HIGH PERFORMANCE BROADBAND MIXERS

Spectrum Microwave's hybrid mixer product line (formerly Magnum Microwave) covers frequency ranges from 0.5 MHz to 26.5 GHz. Available in many industry-standard surface mount, drop-in and connectorized housings, these mixers are ideal for high reliability applications.

Some features include:

Spectrum mixers are offered in both double or triple balanced configurations for a broad frequency response. Other diode-based versions include frequency doublers to 20 GHz, Image Reject and I/Q Modulators to 16 GHz.

Dependable chip and wire topology offers repeatability under extreme conditions.
