Description
Alpha’s single balanced GaAs
Schottky diode mixer has a typical conversion loss of 6.
0 dB at an LO power level as low as 8 dBm over the band 26–33 GHz.
The chip uses Alpha’s proven
Schottky diode technology, and is based upon MBE layers for the highest uniformity and repeatability.
The diodes employ surface passivation to ensure a rugged, reliable part with through-substrate via holes and gold-based backside metallization to facilitate an...
