Marki Microwave Inc., Morgan Hill, Calif.

Marki Microwave recently released microlithic IQ mixers covering 4 to 16 GHz and 2 to 18 GHz bands. Now the company is extending IQ mixer coverage to millimeter wave frequencies with the MLIQ-1845.

 Marki Microwave Inc.'s ultra-high linearity, ridiculously broadband T3 mixers are now offered with complete frequency overlap on all three ports up to 18 GHz.  The T3H-18 and T3H-20 feature RF/LO coverage of .01-18/20 GHz, with matching IF coverage of .01-18 GHz.  

GaN power amplifiers are driving demand for increased power handling from supporting passive components, and Marki Microwave is responding with new high power bias tees and baluns. The new high power surface mount baluns (BALH-0003SMG and BALH-0006SMG) have a 37 dBm 1 dB compression point and improved 5 dB insertion loss (2 dB excess).
