Description
MY50 is a triple balanced mixer, designed for use in military, com-
mercial and test equipment applications. The design utilizes
Schottky ring quad diodes and broadband soft dielectric baluns to
attain excellent performance. The use of high temperatu re solder
assembly processes used internally makes it ideal for use in man-
ual, semi-automated assembly. Environmental screening avail-
able to MIL-STD-883, MIL-STD-202 or MIL-DTL-28837, consult
factory.
