APPLICATIONS Microwave and very small aperture terminal (VSAT) radios Test equipment Point to point radios Satellite communications (SATCOM) Military electronic warfare (EW), electronic countermeasure (ECM), and command, control, communications and intelligence (C3I) GENERAL DESCRIPTION The HMC798ALC4 is a 24 GHz to 34 GHz subharmonically to 34 GHz frequency range, eliminating the need for additional pumped (2) MMIC mixer with an integrated LO amplifier housed filtering. The LO amplifier is single bias at a 5 V dc with a in a leadless, RoHS compliant LCC package. The HMC798ALC4 typical 4 dBm LO drive level requirement The HMC798ALC4 can be used as an upconverter or downconverter between 24 GHz eliminates the need for wire bonding, allowing use of surface- and 34 GHz. mount technology (SMT) manufacturing techniques. The 2 LO to radio frequency (RF) isolation is typically 30 dB in a 24 GHz to 30 GHz frequency range and 36 dB in a 30 GHz Rev. 0 Document Feedback Information furnished by Analog Devices is believed to be accurate and reliable.
