General Notes:
1. The DTF-A series Termination Insensitive Mixers cover the frequency range of 1 to 3500 MHz using transmission line
hybrid junction techniques to isolate the diode rings from termination mismatch-induced reflections. This means the
intermodulation ratio is independent of the IF port load impedance, so this unit is ideal for applications where a high
performance mixer must drive a reactive load (e.g., filter) at the IF port. The DTF-A series and related models are available
in PC, SMD and connectorized packages.
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 routine to very special.
3. Merrimac mixers comply with MIL-M-28837 and may be supplied screened for compliance with additional specifications
for military and space specifications requiring the highest reliability.
