SFQ-60390315-1212SF-N1-M

Rev 1.0

Description:
Model SFQ-60390315-1212SF-N1-M is an E Bandquadrature mixer that covers the frequency range of 60 to90 GHz. The typical conversion loss of the quadrature mixer
is 15 dB with an LO driving power of +16 dBm. The typical LO
to RF port isolation is 30 dB. Since the IF port of thequadrature mixer is DC coupled, the mixer can be used as aphase detector. In addition, the mixer can be readily
configured into an image rejection mixer or single sideband
modulator by adding an IF quadrature coupler.

The I/Q mixer can be configured as an image rejection mixer or used as an I/Q up-converter,single sideband modulator and phase detector.
All testing was performed under +25 ˚C case temperature.

Eravant reserves the right to change the information presented without notice.

Caution:•••••Exceeding absolute maximum ratings will damage the device.
The mixer is a static sensitive device. Always follow ESD rules when working with the device.
The IF ports are DC coupled. Use DC blocks if necessary. Do not apply an external bias voltage
to the IF port.
Proper torque, 8.0 ± 0.15 inch-pounds (0.90 ± 0.02 Nm), should be applied. Eravant torquewrench, model SCH-08008-S1, is highly recommended.
Any foreign objects in the waveguide will cause performance degradation and possible device
damage.
