General Notes:
1. A vector modulator is used to phase modulate an RF carrier
with complex analog signals.
2. Merrimac Vector Modulators consist of a quadrature hybrid and
an in-phase power divider.
3. Units in the VMP-2S series are capable of modulating the carrier
at up to 10% of the RF bandwidth.
4. These vector modulators comply with the relevant sections of
MIL-M-28837 and may be supplied screened for compliance with
additional specifications for military and space applications
requiring the highest reliability.
