PE86X1024

RF Mixers Overview

The PE86X1024 is a double balanced mixer manufactured by Pasternack. It operates with an RF frequency range of 800 MHz to 4.2 GHz and an LO frequency range of 800 MHz to 4.2 GHz. The intermediate frequency (IF) range extends from DC to 800 MHz. The device requires a local oscillator power input of +13 dBm. It utilizes SMA connectors for interfacing.

RF Mixers Feature Summary

• Double balanced mixer architecture
• SMA female connector interface
• Wideband RF and LO coverage

RF Mixers Applications

• Radar systems
• VSAT communications
• Signal conditioning circuits

RF Mixers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version for the PE86X1024 to confirm electrical tolerances and mechanical dimensions. Ensure that the required LO drive level of +13 dBm is available in the target system design. Confirm compatibility with SMA connector standards before integration into the assembly.

RF Mixers Selection Notes

Select this component when an RF frequency range between 800 MHz and 4.2 GHz is required. The IF output must fall within the DC to 800 MHz bandwidth. Verify that the application can provide the specified +13 dBm LO power level. Consider the SMA interface requirements for PCB or cable connections.

RF Mixers Part Context

This part belongs to the Pasternack RF Mixer product line. It is designed for signal conditioning applications requiring frequency conversion. The device supports both radar and VSAT operational environments. It serves as a passive mixing element within microwave circuits.

RF Mixers Replacement Considerations

No public substitute part numbers are confirmed for this specific model. Cross-referencing requires matching the 800 MHz to 4.2 GHz frequency ranges and the +13 dBm LO power specification. Verify connector type and IF bandwidth compatibility before considering alternatives.
