SFQ-50375313-1515KF-N1-M

Rev 1.2

Description:
Model SFQ-50375313-1515KF-N1-M is an V Band quadrature
mixer that covers the frequency range of 50 to 75 GHz. The
typical conversion loss of the quadrature mixer is 13 dB with an
LO driving power of +16 dBm. Since the IF ports of thequadrature mixer are 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 byadding an IF quadrature coupler.

Note:•••••All data presented is collected from a sample lot. Actual data may vary unit to unit.
All testing was performed under +25 ˚C case temperature.
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.
Other mechanical configurations are available under different model numbers.
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 (0.92 ± 0.05 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.
