Description
The excellent frequency response and low conversion loss are achieved without external dc bias or tuning stubs. Since bias and tuning stubs are not required, manual operation is simplified, and the complexity of hardware and software for automatic systems is greatly reduced. The repeatability of amplitude measurements is also enhanced. The dual-diode design of the mixers further simplifies measurements by suppressing the odd-order harmonics by more than 20 dB, which makes identification of the mixing products easier
Key Features & Specifications
- Flat frequency response
- Low conversion loss
- No bias or tuning adjustments
- 100 mW safe input level
Description
The Keysight 11970A waveguide mixer is a general-purpose harmonic mixer employing a dual-diode design to achieve flat frequency response and low conversion loss. These are achieved without external dc bias or tuning stubs. Manual operation and computer-controlled hardware operation are simplified because mixer bias and tuning adjustment are not required.
The 11970A extends the frequency range of the Keysight N9030A PXA high-performance signal analyzer to the A-Band (26.5 to 40 GHz). It is also fully compatible with other Keysight spectrum analyzers including: the E4440A/46A/48A PSA (with Option AYZ), the E4407B ESA-E (with Option AYZ), the 856xEC, the 8566B (with a preamplifier), and the 7000 modular analyzer (with the 70907A/B external mixer interface module).
An external diplexer is required to connect the 11970A with the N9030A PXA (with Option EXM). The recommended diplexer can be purchased from Keysight as model number N9029AE13 or from OML, Inc as model number DLP.313B.
Contact your Keysight sales representative for ordering the N9029AE13.
