The Frequency Doubler 211BX is a biasable, high-efficiency, high-power millimeter-wave frequency multiplier designed for advanced MM-wave and sub-MM systems operating in the WR-2.8 band. Optimized for input frequencies from 155 to 185 GHz, the 211BX delivers doubled output frequencies from 310 to 370 GHz with typical conversion efficiency of approximately 21%. Based on ACST’s high-power multiplier technology and balanced circuit configuration, the 211BX provides flat response, effective suppression of unwanted harmonics, and robust output performance for laboratory instrumentation, FMCW radar, active imaging, and local oscillator sources for MM/Sub-MM heterodyne receivers.
General Specifications:
Input Port (UG 387/U-M): WR-5
Input Frequency (GHz): 155–185
Input Power (mW): 40 to 280
Output Port (UG 387/U-M): WR-2.8
Output Frequency (GHz): 310–370
