SMT GaAs MMIC x2 ACTIVE FREQUENCY

MULTIPLIER, 8 - 21 GHz OUTPUT

Functional Diagram

Typical Applications

The HMC561LP3E are suitable for:

• Clock Generation Applications:

SONET OC-192 & SDH STM-64

• Point-to-Point & VSAT Radios

• Test Instrumentation

• Military & Space

General Description

The HMC561LP3(E) is a x2 active broadband frequ-

ency multiplier utilizing GaAs PHEMT technology

in a leadless RoHS compliant SMT package. When

driven by a +5 dBm signal, the multiplier provides

+14 dBm typical output power from 8 to 21 GHz and

the Fo and 3Fo isolations are 15 dBc at 16 GHz. The

HMC561LP3(E) is ideal for use in LO multiplier chains

for Pt to Pt & VSAT Radios yielding reduced parts

count vs. traditional approaches. The low additive

SSB Phase Noise of -139 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz offset

helps maintain good system noise performance. The

RoHS packaged HMC561LP3(E) eliminates the need

for wire bonding, and allows the use of surface mount

manufacturing techniques. For availability on Non-

RoHS compliant HMC561LP3 product please contact

Hittite Microwave sales directly.
