ABSTRACT:
A routing YIG-tuned resonator filter integrated with an image-enhanced, double-balanced mixer. The YIG-tuned resonator filter is preferably a four-sphere YIG-tuned preselector which is integrated with a low-loss, fundamentally or harmonically mixed, image-enhanced, double-balanced mixer to provide a high level of dynamic range in a harmonically mixed front end. An input resonator of the preselector in combination with a dual PIN diode switch switches low-frequency input signals (e.g., 0 to 2.9 GHz) to a low-band mixer. For RF input signals (e.g., 2.7 to 26.5 GHz), the four-sphere YIG-tuned preselector is combined with the image-enhanced, double-balanced mixer which incorporates a GaAs monolithic diode bridge integrated circuit. This provides a cost effective front end for a microwave spectrum analyzer.
