  • Abstract
    This paper describes the approaches used and some of the results obtained building integrated mixers in S band. These mixers are built with a unique "bilithic" Schottky-barrier diode chip and evaporated microstrip circuitry on alumina dielectric. Mixer noise figures are less than 7.5 db with local oscillator powers of \\approx 3 to 30 mw. The impedances are 50 \\Omega in and out with the signal input VSWR being less than 1.5/1 over the local oscillator range and a bandwidth of \\pm 15 %.
