Product Details
The LT5560 is a low power, high performance broadband active mixer. This double-balanced mixer can be driven by a single-ended LO source and requires only –2dBm of LO power. The balanced design results in low LO leakage to the output, while the integrated input amplifier provides excellent LO to IN isolation. The signal ports can be impedance matched to a broad range of frequencies, which allows the LT5560 to be used as an up- or down-conversion mixer in a wide variety of applications.
The LT5560 is characterized with a supply current of 10mA; however, the DC current is adjustable, which allows the performance to be optimized for each application with a single resistor. For example, when biased at its maximum supply current (13.4mA), the typical upconverting mixer IIP3 is +10.8dBm for a 900MHz output.
