Qorvo® introduced a family of compact Quadrature IF Mixers, or IQ Mixers, that address the needs of wideband and high frequency applications such as phased array radar, satellite communications and electronic warfare.
These four new I/Q mixer products, QPX0001, QPX0002, QPX0003D (die) and QPX0004D(die) help to extend and strengthen Qorvo's existing mixer portfolio by delivering industry-leading broadband performance while covering an impressive operating frequency range from 2.5 GHz up to 40 GHz. They offer excellent image rejection (> 20 dB) and are a much smaller alternative to higher cost hybrid I/Q mixers and single sideband upconverter assemblies.
Dean White, director of Defense and Aerospace at Qorvo, said, "By investing in and growing our high performance GaAs product portfolio, like the QPX series of mixers, we are able to engage earlier in the customer design cycle, making Qorvo a trusted design partner and not just another component supplier."
The QPX0001, QPX0002, QPX0003D and QPX0004D are sampling now.
