Abstract :
A novel broadband mixer topology, which can be implemented using either monolithic or discrete integrated circuit methods, has been developed using distributed design techniques. The MMIC mixer exhibits excellent 2-18 GHz conversion gain performance with signal handling capabilities and LO drive requirements similar to conventional diode double-balanced circuits.
