Popular manufacturers and vendors of Waveguide Frequency Multipliers include Mini Circuits, Pasternack Enterprises, Virginia Diodes, Mi-Wave, and Spacek Labs, among others.

Introduction

A frequency multiplier is a device that generates an output frequency which is a multiple of the input frequency. The output frequency can be a multiple of 2x, 3x, 4x, or even n*x of the input frequency. There are two main types of frequency multipliers based on their functionality: passive and active. A waveguide frequency multiplier is specifically designed to operate within waveguide dimensions.

When selecting a waveguide frequency multiplier, consider the following specifications:

• Input frequency: The frequency of the signal to be multiplied.
• Output frequency: The resulting multiplied frequency.
• Output power: The amplitude level of the output signal.
• Multiplying factor: The factor by which the input frequency is multiplied (e.g., 2X, 3X, 4X, etc.).
• Type of multiplier: Active or Passive.
• DC-Bias: The operating voltage required by the multiplier (e.g., +6V, +8V, +12V, +13V, etc.).
• Current Consumption: The amount of current drawn by the multiplier.
• Package type: Surface mount or connectorized.
• Input port connector: SMA-Female, K-Female, etc.
• Output port connector: As per Waveguide (e.g., WR-10, WR-12, WR-15, WR-19, WR-22, WR-28), or SMA-Female, K-Female, etc.
