Abstract

A mixer comprising four FET transistors in a MMIC, a reflection transformer having tri-filar windings, an IF balun, an RF balun, a local oscillator balun, a pair of load resistors, a pair of series resistors, and a pair of series capacitors. The mixer is packaged in a lidded header similar to a large TO-8 metal package.
