ABSTRACT:
A microwave-type device such as a mixer is disclosed having an improved diode mount with the position of the diode within the waveguide determined solely by the position of a contact rod extending into the waveguide on the side of the waveguide opposite the ground contact of the diode. The contact rod mates with the active contact of the diode by an annular spring fashioned at the waveguide end of the rod. The annular spring also provides a stop against which the diode rests thus determining its position. Electrical connection to the ground contact is made through a second annular spring. A coil spring provides longitudinal force holding the diode in position against the contact rod.
