GaAs HBT VECTOR
MODULATOR 700 - 1000 MHz
v00.1007
HMC630LP3 / 630LP3E
General Description
Features
Functional Diagram
The HMC630LP3 & HMC630LP3E are high dynamic
range Vector Modulator RFICs which are targeted
for RF predistortion and feed-forward cancellation
circuits, as well as RF beam forming and amplitude/
phase correction circuits. The I & Q ports of the
HMC630LP3(E) can be used to continuously vary
the phase and amplitude of RF signals by up to 360
degrees and 40 dB respectively, while supporting a
3 dB modulation bandwidth of 180 MHz. With an out-
put IP3 of +24.5 dBm and output noise oor of -162
dBm/Hz (at maximum gain setting), the output IP3/
noise oor ratio is 186.5 dB.
Continuous Phase Control: 360°
Continuous Gain Control: 40 dB
Low Output Noise Floor: -162 dBm/Hz
High Input IP3: +34 dBm

Typical Applications
The HMC630LP3(E) is ideal for:
• Wireless Infrastructure HPA &
MCPA Error Correction
• Pre-Distortion or Feed-Forward Linearization
• Cellular / 3G Systems
• Beam Forming or RF Cancellation Circuits
