How do you explain frequency response?

A frequency response describes the steady-state response of a system to sinusoidal inputs of varying frequencies and lets control engineers analyze and design control systems in the frequency domain.

What is frequency on a mixer?

Signals at the RF input port are mixed with signals at the LO port using a double-balanced mixer. These downconverter mixers operate with RF input frequencies between 400 MHz and 2,500 MHz, and downconvert to IF output frequencies between 10 and 500 MHz.

How do mixers work RF?

A mixer takes an RF input signal at a frequency fRF, mixes it with a LO signal at a frequency fLO, and produces an IF output signal that consists of the sum and difference frequencies, fRF ± fLO.

How do you find the frequency response?

First we substitute s = jω into H(s) to obtain an expression of the frequency response. Note that the numerator and the denomator are both complex. To obtain the amplitude response, we take the absolute value of H(jω). To do this, we evaluate the magnitude of the numerator and the denominator separately.
