Genesys Mixer Synthesis

Genesys Mixer Synthesis quickly explores a variety of practical mixer circuits, so that RF circuit and system designers of all skill levels can start with a working topology, tuned to their frequency plan. Other Genesys capabilities can then be used to extend the mixer performance, consider novel design approaches, and make the design more manufacturable by analyzing sensitivity to component tolerances.

Genesys Mixer Synthesis is best used in conjunction with the Harbec harmonic balance nonlinear circuit simulator. It provides a series of starting application templates for synthesizing 11 different mixer topologies. Designers use the synthesis results as the basis for realizing designs using commercial devices, substrates, and physical model sets. Mixer Synthesis also makes a good technology evaluation tool, comparing the strengths and weaknesses of various mixer topologies with regard to conversion gain, image rejection, and other performance parameters.
