The series MUD frequency doubler is a balanced resistive mode multiplier covering the full waveguide band from WR-28 to WR-06. The corresponding output frequency range is 26.5 to 170 GHz and the output power flatness is typically ± 2.0 dB across the waveguide band. This frequency doubler is offered in two versions, a standard and high power version. The standard version produces an output power of -15 to +3 dBm, depending upon the input power level and frequency range. The high power version produces an output power of 0 dBm to 10 dBm across an input power range of 21 to 24 dBm, dependent on the frequency range

The series MUT frequency tripler is a balanced resistive mode multiplier covering full waveguide bands from WR-22 to WR-05. The corresponding output frequency range is 33 to 220 GHz. The series MUT is offered in two versions, standard and high power. The standard version produces an output power of -15 to +3 dBm, depending upon the input power level and frequency range. The high power version produces an output power of 3 to 10 dBm across an input power range of 21 to 24 dBm, dependent on the frequency range
