= +25° C, Vdd1, Vdd2 = +5V, 3 dBm Drive Level
Typical Applications
The HMC576LC3B is suitable for:
• Clock Generation Applications:
SONET OC-192 & SDH STM-64
• Point-to-Point & VSAT Radios
• Test Instrumentation
• Military & Space
The HMC576LC3B is a x2 active broadband frequ-
ency multiplier utilizing GaAs PHEMT technology in a
leadless RoHS compliant SMT package. When driven
by a +3 dBm signal, the multiplier provides +15 dBm
typical output power from 18 to 29 GHz. The Fo and
3Fo isolations are >20 dBc at 24 GHz. The
HMC576LC3B 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 -132 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz offset
helps maintain good system noise performance. The
RoHS packaged HMC576LC3B eliminates the need
for wire bonding, and allows the use of surface mount
manufacturing techniques.
