Abstract
A monolithic double balanced mixer has been realized using 1- mu m GaAs technology. It utilizes the channel resistance of a MESFET operating in the linear region to produce a strong mixer with a high compression point and low intermodulation distortion. Conversion loss of 5.5 dB and an input third-order intercept point of 21 dBm have been measured.<>
