Description
The SM6D is a double balanced mixer, designed for use in mili-
tary, commercial, and test equipment applications. The design
utilizes Schottky ring quad diodes and broadband ferrite baluns to
attain excellent performance. This mixer can also be used as a
phase detector and/or bi-phase modulator since the IF port is DC
coupled to the diodes. Environmental screening is available to
MIL-STD-883, MIL-STD-202, or MIL-DTL-28837, consult factory.
