HMC578 v00.0506 GaAs MMIC x2 ACTIVE FREQUENCY MULTIPLIER, 24 - 33 GHz OUTPUT Typical Applications Features The HMC578 is suitable for: High Output Power: +17 dBm 2 Clock Generation Applications: Low Input Power Drive: 0 to +6 dBm SONET OC-192 & SDH STM-64 Fo Isolation: >25 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 EW / Radar Die Size: 1.18 x 1.23 x 0.1 mm Space Functional Diagram General Description The HMC578 die is a x2 active broadband frequency multiplier utilizing GaAs PHEMT technology. When driven by a +3 dBm signal, the multiplier provides +17 dBm typical output power from 24 to 33 GHz. The Fo and 3Fo isolations are >25 dBc and >36 dBc respectively at 28 GHz. The HMC578 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.
