Mixers,
converters, multipliers, modulators & transceivers are all lumped
together on this page since they all involve some sort of frequency
translation, either up or down. Often, the terms can be interchanged.
This way no matter what you have come in search of, it should be
listed here. These websites contain information relating to mixer,
converter, multiplier, modulator, and transceiver design including
white papers, datasheets, tutorials, and online write-ups.
