Abstract
To provide a frequency conversion device which uses a magneto-resistive device and thereby can correspond to a Si-based MMIC and a GaAs-based MMIC. A frequency conversion apparatus according to the present invention includes: a frequency conversion device made of a magneto-resistive device including a magnetic free layer, an intermediate layer, and a magnetic pinned layer; a magnetic field applying mechanism for applying a magnetic field to the frequency conversion device; a local oscillator for applying a local oscillation signal to the frequency conversion device; and an input terminal electrically connected to the frequency conversion device, and used to input an external input signal.
