FMFX2012

Overview

The FMFX2012 is a signal conditioning component manufactured by Fairview Microwave, classified as a frequency multiplier. It features SMA female connectors and operates with an input frequency range of 1.25 GHz to 3 GHz, producing an output in the 2.5 GHz to 6 GHz band. The device exhibits a conversion loss of 15 dB and is designed for general-purpose RF applications.

Feature Summary

• Performs frequency multiplication using SMA female interfaces
• Converts input signals from 1.25-3 GHz to 2.5-6 GHz output
• Provides general-purpose signal conditioning functionality

Applications

• General purpose RF signal generation
• Frequency synthesis systems
• Microwave communication links

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet provided by Fairview Microwave or authorized distributors to confirm current electrical tolerances and connector specifications. Ensure that the SMA female interface requirements align with system design constraints before integration. Cross-reference the part number FMFX2012 against official manufacturer catalogs to validate active status and technical parameters.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed 2x frequency multiplication ratio is required within the specified microwave bands. The SMA female interface dictates mating connector compatibility. Consider the 15 dB conversion loss impact on system gain budget. This unit serves as a standalone multiplier rather than a tunable synthesizer.

Part Context

Fairview Microwave supplies passive and active RF components for test and measurement industries. The FMFX2012 belongs to their signal conditioning portfolio, specifically addressing frequency conversion needs. It complements other RF interconnects and cable assemblies offered by the manufacturer for complete system integration.

Replacement Considerations

No public confirmed substitute part numbers are available in the provided documentation. Verify compatibility with existing SMA fixtures if direct replacement is necessary.
