  • You must first instance ports for the RF, LO, and IF ports of the mixer (analogLib -> Sources -> Independent -> port). If your mixer requires differential inputs/outputs then refer to the separate tutorial on how to drive differential signals.
  • Edit the properties of the RF port
    • Set the Resistance to 50 Ω and the Port number to 1
    • Set the Source type to dc
    • Click OK
  • Edit the properties of the LO port
    • Set the Resistance to 50 Ω
    • Set the Port number to 2
    • Set the Source type to sine
    • Fill in the flo for the
