M88 / M88C Triple-Balanced Mixer Rev. V3 Features * * * * * Product Image LO 2 TO 18 GHz RF 2 TO 18 GHz IF 1 TO 8 GHz LO DRIVE: +13 dBm (NOMINAL) WIDE BANDWIDTH Description M88 is a triple balanced mixer, designed for use in military, commercial and test equipment applications. The design utilizes Schottky ring quad diodes and broadband soft dielectric baluns to attain excellent performance. The use of high temperature solder assembly processes used internally makes it ideal for use in manual, semi-automated assembly. Environmental screening available to MIL-STD-883, MIL-STD-202 or MIL-DTL-28837, consult factory.
