Description

The M76H is a double balanced mixer, designed for use in

military, commercial and test equipment applications. The design

utilizes Schottky ring quad diodes and broadband soft dielectric

and

ferrite baluns to attain excellent performance. This mixer

can also be used as a phase detector and/or bi-phase modulator

since the IF port is DC coupled to the diodes. The use of high

temperature solder and welded 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.
