5 Classes of microwave mixers The most used non linear device is a Schotcky diode. There are two main classes of microwave mixers: Mixers with a single diode (single ended) Balanced Mixers (with o 4 diodes) Parameters of a microwave mixer: Conversion Loss(dB) (5 15 db) Linearity (referred to the translated RF signal) Noise Suppression of spurious products Input output match Isolation(RF, )
6 Analysis of single-ended mixers Equivalent circuit: Z RF Z LO Rd Z V RF V LO Pumped diode The diode (R d ) is represented by the exponential curve: VD VT ID IS e 1 It can be assumed memoryless (in a first as approximation)
7 Distortion in a mixer Effects of distortion: The spectrum of the frequency translated signal around the new carrier frequency is different from the original one New replicas of the original RF signal, LO and combination of them are generated at different carrier frequencies The local linearity is described by the same parameters used for amplifiers (P 1dB, IP); in the mixers case the input output frequencies are different. Moreover the mentioned parameters depend also on the power level of the local oscillator
8 Single-balanced mixers They allow an intrinsic suppression of some spurious products. An higher power from the LO is requested. A better linearity is obtained, together with higher losses (compared to single ended mixers)
