The LNDQ is a frequency quadrupler that provides excellent phase noise performance for outputs to 1 GHz with low conversion loss. This module features two cascaded Schottky Diode doublers with integrated bandpass filters to control unwanted multiplier products and low noise amplifiers to provide close to 0 dB conversion loss. The diode quadrupler is designed for a typical input level of +12 dBm to ensure optimal performance. Common amplifiers are offered for flexibility in configuring input/output levels (see amplifier selection table). Please consult our technical staff for assistance in configuring a multiplier to suit your input and output requirements.
