INTEGRATED SWITCH MATRICES Our family of rugged, custom-designed switch matrices are available in rigid PCB construction, module-based packages or rackmount solutions. Each switch matrix is a highly integrated, SWaP-optimized assembly consisting of an assortment of switches, filters, amplifiers, attenuators, limiters and drivers. The result is high-speed channel selection, high isolation, high linearity and low insertion loss. Integrated Microwave Assemblies CUSTOM FREQUENCY-CONVERSION SUBASSEMBLIES Mercury specializes in the design and manufacture of custom integrated microwave assemblies (IMAs), including high-performance microwave transceivers. Through substantial R&D investment and a library of building blocks, we have the capability to rapidly execute on the most complicated transceiver designs. As an OpenVPX industry leader, we know how to make integration into your system a breeze. Frequency Converter Product Families: ▪ Block Up-Converters (BUC): Custom products available by integrating a Mercury up-converter with a Mercury SSPA ▪ Low Noise Blocks (LNB): Custom products available by integrating a Mercury down-converter with a Mercury LNA ▪ Transceivers: Custom designs by combining up/down converters with additional components such as PLL and digital control. ▪ Frequency coverage 10 MHz to 110 GHz ▪ Super-heterodyne, image/ LO reject and sub-harmonic topologies ▪ Automatic gain control (AGC) and built-in-test (BIT) ▪ Embedded micro-controller capability ▪ From 10 MHz to 40 GHz ▪ Include position indicating, BIT circuitry, input/output power detection, switched attenuators and on-board PC power conditioning P1dB RF FREQUENCY (GHz) LO FREQUENCY (GHz) LO POWER (dBm) NOISE FIGURE (dB) CONVERSION GAIN (dB) INPUT (dBm) Channel 1 18–26 30.5 ± 0.05 14 ± 1.5 8.5 31 ± 3 -10 Channel 2 26– 40 44 ± 0.05 14 ± 1.5 8.5 41 ± 3 -17 MILLIMETER WAVE DOWN CONVERTER WThe Millimeter Wave down converter accepts RF input signals in the 18–40 GHz frequency range and down converts them to an output frequency range of 4–18 GHz. The converter has two channels, one covering the 18–26 GHz frequency range and the other covering the 26–40 GHz frequency range. Each channel accepts a separate LO input, one at 30.5 GHz and one at 44 GHz. ▪ DC Power: 12 V at 2.5 A, -12 V at 0.1A ▪ Approximate Dimensions: 3.5 x 2.5 x 0.63 inches RF AND MICROWAVE SOLUTIONS Broadband components and assemblies mrcy.com
