Series HBUC Balanced Upconverters

Product Details

DESCRIPTION
The HBUC series broadband balanced
upconverters cover a wide range of waveguide
bands from 18 -110 GHz. They utilize a low loss
structure mated to a matched pair of GaAs
Schottky beam lead diodes for minimum conversion
loss and maximum bandwidth. Superior LO
noise suppression and LO -RF isolation values
are design features.
Upconverters are used to create a millimeter
wave signal by combining a lower IF frequency
with a higher MMW LO frequency. Dual signals,
or double sidebands are produced in this way:
LO ± IF (DSB). Optional filters are offered to
suppress the unwanted sideband and produce a
single sideband (SSB) upconverter. Biased versions
are available for lower LO drive levels.
