General Notes:
1. The DMF-8A series of Double Balanced Mixers covers the frequency range of 0.5 to 2000 MHz using an eight diode ring modulator to produce
a high level mixer with high third order intercept points.
2. Merrimac offers a broad selection of Double Balanced Mixers ideal for a variety of signal processing functions with frequencies ranging from
20 kHz to 20 GHz and for applications from the routine to the very special.
3. Merrimac mixers comply with MIL-M-28837 and may be supplied screened for compliance with additional specifications for military and space
applications requiring the highest reliability.
