Mixer

Hi

Can somebody give me some documents,links about mixer design. I'm especially interrested in a "rat-race" mixer and "horseshoe" mixer.

I want to design, make a prototype of this mixer using microstrips and diodes. Oh yes the frequency of the mixer lays about 2 GHz.

Any suggestions?

Re: Mixer

rat-race is passive component. You can not make a mixer out of these devices. You need transistor devices mainly.
