Key Featrues
High-Linearity Performance (Input IP3 of +28.5dBm): The high linearity ensures minimal signal distortion, improving the quality and reliability of the downconverted signal, which is critical for high-performance communication systems like base stations and microwave links.
Integrated LO Buffer and Switch: The built-in LO buffer and switch simplify the design by reducing external components, while the 43dB LO1-to-LO2 isolation and 50ns switching time enhance efficiency and performance in diversity receiver applications.
Low Noise Figure (10.5dB Typical): The low noise figure ensures superior signal clarity and sensitivity, making it ideal for applications requiring high signal-to-noise ratios, such as private mobile radios and fixed broadband wireless access.
Dual Channels for Diversity Receiver Applications: The dual-channel design supports diversity reception, improving signal reliability and performance in challenging environments, such as wireless local loops and spread-spectrum communication systems.
Applications
Microwave Link Signal Downconversion: This mixer is perfect for downconverting signals in microwave link systems, operating within the 700MHz to 1000MHz RF frequency range. Its high spurious rejection and low noise figure ensure clear signal transmission, making it ideal for long-distance communication networks and military systems requiring high reliability.
Private Mobile Radio Systems: The mixer is well-suited for private mobile radio (PMR) systems, offering high channel-to-channel isolation and integrated LO switching. Its ability to handle low LO drive levels and fast switching times makes it ideal for secure and efficient communication in emergency services, transportation, and industrial applications.
Fixed Broadband Wireless Access: With its wide RF and LO frequency ranges, this mixer is ideal for fixed broadband wireless access systems. Its high input IP3 and low noise figure ensure superior signal quality, making it suitable for delivering high-speed internet and data services in remote or underserved areas.
