Abstract :
The simple but exact nonlinear analysis of Schottky barrier mixers by Sonine´s expansion requires that a short circuit be presented to the harmful interference products. A mixer configuration, is proposed which satisfies this requirement and has excellent noise performance. A comparison is made between a computed and measured intermodulation product.
