Mixer component for frequency conversion

The Mixer component provides a single-ended modulator. The Mixer component can be used for frequency conversion of an input signal using a fixed Local Oscillator (LO) signal as the sampling clock. The manipulations of signal frequencies that a mixer performs can be used to move signals between frequency bands or to encode and decode signals. A mixer can be used to convert signal power at one frequency into power at another frequency to make signal processing easier, typically shifting higher frequencies to baseband.

Features of Mixer
  • Single-ended mixer
  • Continuous-time up mixing:
    • Input frequencies up to 500 kHz
    • Sample clock up to 1 MHz
  • Discrete-time, sample-and-hold down mixing:
    •  Input frequencies up to 14 MHz
    •  Sample clock up to 4 MHz
  • Adjustable power settings
  • Selectable reference voltage
