Frequency Converters
Farran_UpConverter_BUC-28S.png

A range of broadband converter modules from 24.5 – 110 GHz have been developed based on the successful BMC-series of balanced mixers and temperature stabilised GN-series Gunn Oscillators.

These block downconverters allow existing microwave hardware such as receivers, test equipment, etc, to be extended into the mm-wave spectral region. Low noise figures are achieved over greater than 15GHz bandwidths and the temperature stabilized Gunn oscillators provide stabilities of the order ±35 MHz over an operating range 15-25ºC (eg. BDC-28 Model).

Higher stability local oscillators such as  PLO’s can also be provided. As standard, image rejection filtering is integral.
