Active Component Test: Mixers and Frequency Converters
アプリケーションノート
Frequency-translating devices translate a band of input frequencies to a different band, one that is either higher (up-converted) or lower (down-converted) in frequency. This crucial function makes them integral to most RF applications, including wireless-communications systems and in the transmit and receive portions of radar and electronic-warfare systems. This application note describes how a modern vector network analyzer (VNA) like Keysight’s PNA-X Series can be used for comprehensive testing of mixers and frequency converters.
