= +25° C, Vdd = +4.5V, +4 dBm Drive Level
Typical Applications
The HMC942LP4E is ideal for:
• Clock Generation Applications:
SONET OC-192 & SDH STM-64
• Point-to-Point & VSAT Radios
• Test Instrumentation
• Military & Space
• Sensors
The HMC942LP4E is a x2 active broadband frequ-
ency multiplier utilizing GaAs pHEMT technology
in a leadless RoHS compliant SMT package. When
driven by a +4 dBm signal, the multiplier provides
+17 dBm typical output power from 13 to 24.6 GHz.
The Fo and 3Fo isolations are >20 dBc at 19 GHz. The
HMC942LP4E is ideal for use in LO multiplier chains
for Pt-to-Pt & VSAT Radios yielding reduced parts
count vs. traditional approaches.
High Output Power: +21 dBm
Low Input Power Drive: 0 to +6 dBm
Fo Isolation: >45 dBc
Single Supply: +4.5V @ 214 mA
