HMC578LC3B v03.0514 SMT GaAs MMIC x2 ACTIVE FREQUENCY MULTIPLIER, 23 - 33 GHz Typical Applications Features The HMC578LC3B is suitable for: High Output Power: +15 dBm Clock Generation Applications: Low Input Power Drive: 0 to +6 dBm SONET OC-192 & SDH STM-64 Fo Isolation: >20 dBc Fout= 28 GHz Point-to-Point & VSAT Radios 100 KHz SSB Phase Noise: -132 dBc/Hz Test Instrumentation Single Supply: +5V 81 mA Military & Space RoHS Compliant 3x3 mm SMT Package Functional Diagram General Description The HMC578LC3B 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 23 to 33 GHz. The Fo and 3Fo isolations are >20 dBc and >30 dBc respectively at 28 GHz. The HMC578LC3B 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 -129 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz offset helps maintain good system noise performance. The RoHS packaged HMC578LC3B eliminates the need for wire bonding, and allows the use of surface mount manufacturing techniques.
