Mixers: Triple Balanced Mixers
Triple balanced mixers (or double-double balanced mixers)
are designed with dual quad diodes on a soft substrate
and offer a higher input compression point performance
with a broad IF frequency range. These mixers require
a higher LO drive level however are well suited for higher
dynamic range systems requiring multiple up and down conversion
stages. The IF output is not DC coupled.
