Active Frequency Multipliers
Description
Series of active frequency multipliers simplifies system designs by offering high output power levels. They are important building block components used in local oscillator (LO) chains for radar, communication receivers, and frequency sources to extend frequencies and achieve optimal performance. Units support multiple markets and applications, including electronic warfare, electronic countermeasures, point-to-point radio, VSAT radio, test instrumentation, and telecom infrastructure.
Specs
Specifications:
- (x2) multipliers double input frequencies ranging from 4 to 23 GHz up to desirable mm-wave output frequencies from 8 to 46 GHz
- New designs use highly efficient GaAs PHEMT semiconductor technology with integrated amplifiers that produce high output power levels up to +17 dBm with excellent fundamental and harmonic suppression
- These active frequency multipliers require a single +5 v dc supply
- Input/output RF ports are matched for 50 ohms and are DC blocked
- Compact drop-in package assemblies are hermetically sealed and support field replaceable 2.92-mm connectors
