MD-161 - Termination Insensitive Mixer

Download the MD-161 datasheet PDF. This datasheet also covers the MD-161-MA variant, as both devices belong to the same termination insensitive mixer family and are provided as variant models within a single manufacturer datasheet.

General Description

The unique design of the termination insensitive mixer (TIM) enables it to apply high reverse voltage to diodes during their ―off‖ phase, in the LO cycle.

This allows for higher power level performance with minimum distortion.

Key Features

  • Third Order Intermodulation Ratio is Insensitive to Port Mismatches.
  • Conversion Loss: 6dB Typical Midband.
  • DC Coupled IF Port.
  • High Level Phase Detector.
  • Impedance: 50 Ohms Nominal.
  • Maximum Input Power: 350 mW Max @ 25°C, Derated to 85°C @ 3.2 mW/°C.
  • LO Power: +24 dBm Max.
  • IF Port Current: 50 mA Max.
  • MIL-STD-883 Screening Available.

MD-161 Termination Insensitive Mixer, 1 - 500 MHz Features  Third Order Intermodulation Ratio is Insensitive to Port Mismatches  Conversion Loss: 6dB Typical Midband  DC Coupled IF Port  High Level Phase Detector  Impedance: 50 Ohms Nominal  Maximum Input Power: 350 mW Max @ 25°C, Derated to 85°C @ 3.2 mW/°C  LO Power: +24 dBm Max.  IF Port Current: 50 mA Max.  MIL-STD-883 Screening Available Description The unique design of the termination insensitive mixer (TIM) enables it to apply high reverse voltage to diodes during their ―off‖ phase, in the LO cycle. This allows for higher power level performance with minimum distortion. In addition the TIM has internal loads that provide a good match and also absorb mixer generated LO frequency terms.
