  • Abstract
    The three principal modes of non linear operation of DGFET mixers are described and modelled in order to understand the mixing mechanism and optimize critical circuit and device parameters. Theoretical results are compared with experiments on a 12 GHz TV reception mixer with 8 dB conversion gain and 800 MHz bandwidth.
