RMS-30+

RF Mixers Overview

The RMS-30+ is a surface-mount double-balanced mixer from Mini-Circuits, designed for RF and LO frequencies spanning 200 MHz to 3 GHz. It supports an intermediate frequency range of 0 Hz to 1 GHz with a maximum conversion loss of 9.8 dB. The device operates on a +5 V supply with a current draw of 40 mA and functions within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. Packaged in a compact 3125 (7864 metric) SMD footprint, it utilizes silicon technology and requires a Level 7 local oscillator power of +7 dBm.
