GENERAL DESCRIPTION The HMC8362 is a gallium arsenide (GaAs), quadband, The HMC8362 integrates resonators, negative resistance monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC), voltage devices, and varactor diodes. The monolithic structure of the controlled oscillator (VCO) designed to offer wideband oscillator offers very low phase noise, optimal temperature capabilities without compromising on phase noise performance. stability, and is immune to vibration and process variation. The device integrates four independent, narrow-band VCOs The four VCOs are packaged in a single, 6 mm 6 mm, with overlapping frequency bands, operating at a fundamental surface-mount lead frame chip scale package (LFCSP), and frequency range of 11.90 GHz to 18.30 GHz. The consistent require no external matching components. tuning sensitivity across all frequency bands simplifies the Combined with a high frequency, high performance phase- synthesizer loop filter design. locked loop (PLL), the ADF41513, the HMC8362 offers a The tuning port is common to all VCO cores for a simpler complete RF or microwave frequency generation solution. design of the phase-locked loop (PLL) feedback path. The HMC8362 also offers a low typical current consumption of 72 mA for power sensitive applications. Rev.
