M2GC

RF Mixers Overview

The M2GC is a double-balanced RF mixer manufactured by MACOM Technology Solutions. It operates with a local oscillator (LO) frequency range of 800 MHz to 3500 MHz and an intermediate frequency (IF) range from DC to 1500 MHz. The device provides typical conversion loss of 8 dB down. It is designed for general-purpose applications within the 1 GHz to 2.2 GHz spectrum. The component utilizes silicon technology and is supplied in bulk packaging.
