What is a Mixer? Modern RF and Microwave Mixers Explained

Christopher Marki explains the operation principles of modern RF and microwave mixers at the Silicon Valley chapter of the IEEE-MTT on January 22, 2015.

Undoubtedly the best explanation of RF/Microwave mixers!

finally, someone talks about mixers in the correct info, well done!!!

Excellent presentation.👍🏻! In fact, my wife enjoyed it as well. The;She is now looking forward to the next video in the series... “Blenders and Juicers” 😆 😂🧂👍🏻

This is incredibly valuable and educational. Thanks Marki!

Thank you for this sharing

I love this.

Actually.. I’d love the see a course on the use of a spectrum analyzer in “ham” , public safety and commercial radio. I would like to get more out of spectrum analyzer units other than just tuning the occasional duplexer,. (Same win oscilloscope use) Thanks again!

Great video; thanks for posting it. I thought mixer linearity was inversely proportional to diode resistance; hence the need for higher LO drive. So do these high IP3 mixers with their 23 dBm or higher LO requirements actually get you anything, is is it a diminishing return?
