Figure 2-15 Conversion Loss Example Measurement
In this measurement, you set the input power and measured the output power. Figure 2-15 shows the
absolute loss through the mixer versus mixer output frequency. If the mixer under test contained built-in
amplification, then the measurement results would have shown conversion gain.
