Abstract
AbstractIn this article, a broadband double‐balanced mixer is presented using a wideband Marchand balun implementation by vertical coupler. Frequency is selected as 1.0–3.7 GHz for radio frequency (RF), 1.14–3.84 GHz for LO, and 140 MHz for IF signals. When LO signal with 7 dBm at 2.64 GHz is injected, a conversion loss of 7.5 dB, and RF to LO isolation of −45 dB are obtained. Also, an average conversion loss of 9 dB, and RF to LO isolation of −25 dB are obtained for frequency band of 1.0–3.7 GHz. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
