SMT GaAs HBT MMIC x2 ACTIVE

FREQUENCY MULTIPLIER, 9.9 - 12.7 GHz OUTPUT

v03.0907

General Description

Features

Functional Diagram

Output Power: +4 dBm

Sub-Harmonic Suppression: 30 dBc

SSB Phase Noise: -142 dBc/Hz

Single Supply: 5V@ 46 mA

Typical Applications

Active Multiplier for X Band Applications:

• OC-192 Clock Recovery

• Microwave Radio & VSAT

• Military Radios, Radar & ECM

• Test Instrumentation

The HMC369LP3 & HMC369LP3E are active miniature

x2 frequency multipliers utilizing InGaP GaAs HBT

technology in 3x3 mm leadless QFN surface mount

packages. Power output is +4 dBm typical from a

single +5.0V supply and varies little vs. input power,

temperature and supply voltage. Suppression of

undesired fundamental and sub-harmonics is 30

dBc typical with respect to output signal level. The

low additive SSB phase noise of -142 dBc/Hz at 100

kHz offset helps the user maintain good system noise

performance. The HMC369LP3 & HMC369LP3E

are ideal for use in LO multiplier chains allowing

reduced parts count versus traditional approaches.

The HMC369LP3 & HMC369LP3E are also useful for

OC-192 clock recovery. The application of 10 GBPS

data to the input generates a -7 dBm clock tone at the

output with spurious signals suppressed by 25 dB.
