APPLICATIONS Clock generation applications Synchronous optical networking (SONET) optical carrier (OC)-192 and synchronous digital hierarchy (SDH) synchronous transport module (STM)-64 Point to point and very small aperture terminal (VSAT) radios Test instrumentation Military electronic warfare and radar Space GENERAL DESCRIPTION The HMC-C056 is a 2 active broadband frequency multiplier The HMC-C056 is a frequency multiplier, featuring dc blocked module, using gallium arsenide (GaAs), pseudomorphic high inputs/outputs. The HMC-C056 is ideal for use in local electron mobility transistor (pHEMT) technology in a oscillator (LO) multiplier chains for point to point and VSAT miniature HSM. When driven by a 6 dBm signal, the multiplier radios yielding reduced devices count vs. traditional provides 14 dBm typical output power from 8 GHz to 21 GHz. approaches. The low additive SSB phase noise of 142 dBc/Hz The f isolation is 16 dBc at 15 GHz with respect to the output at 100 kHz offset has minimal impact on system level noise OUT signal level. performance.
