Description

The M2T is a triple balanced mixer, designed for use in military,

commercial and test equipment applications. The design utilizes

Schottky ring quad diodes and broadband soft dielectric baluns to

attain excellent performance. The use of high temperature solder

and welded assembly processes used internally makes it ideal for

use in manual, semi-automated assembly.

Environmental

screening available to MIL-STD-883, MIL-STD-202 or MIL-DTL-

28837, consult factory.
