Description
The M8TH is a termination insensitive mixer, designed for use in
military, wireless and test equipment applications. The design
utilizes Schottky bridge quad diodes, broadband ferrite baluns and
internal loads to provide excellent performance without
degradation due to external VSWR mismatches. Environmental
screening available to MIL-STD-883, MIL-STD-202 or
MIL-DTL-28837, consult factory.
