Key Features of T3 mixers
- Ultra-broadband: MHz to GHz bandwidth in IF, RF and LO ports
- High two-tone mixer: +35 dBm IIP3 typical with square-wave LO drive
- True commutating mixer: spurious performance, IIP3 and 1 dB compression improves with increased LO drive
- Flexible LO drive: constant conversion loss over huge LO range
- "Mixer for the 21st Century"
