Overview
The MC1496DR2G, produced by onsemi, is a balanced modulator/demodulator designed for applications where the output voltage is the product of an input voltage (signal) and a switching function (carrier). This device is particularly useful in various modulation and detection scenarios, including suppressed carrier and amplitude modulation, synchronous detection, FM detection, phase detection, and chopper applications.
