Exceptional performance
The Agilent Technologies 11970 Series harmonic mixers are general purpose mixers
employing a dual-diode design to achieve very flat frequency response and low
conversion loss. Each mixer is calibrated across its full band:
11970K* 18 to 26.5 GHz
11970A 26.5 to 40 GHz
11970Q 33 to 50 GHz
11970U 40 to 60 GHz
11970V 50 to 75 GHz
11970W 75 to 110 GHz
This series of mixers has been designed for a local oscillator frequency of 3 to 6.1 GHz.
Accurate absolute amplitude measurements can be made by using the mixer’s conversion loss
calibration chart. The SWR of the waveguide input is typically 2.2:1 to further minimize
measurement uncertainty. The combination of high gain-compression level and low
conversion loss provides the maximum dynamic range for measuring input signals.
