GENERAL DESCRIPTION The HMC892ALP5E is a tunable band-pass filter that features a user selectable pass-band frequency. The 3 dB filter bandwidth is approximately 8.7%. The 20 dB filter bandwidth is approximately 23.8%. The center frequency can be varied between 3.45 GHz and 6.25 GHz by applying an analog tuning voltage between 0 V and 14 V. Rev. 0 This tunable filter can be used as a smaller alternative to physically large switched filter banks and cavity tuned filters. The HMC892ALP5E has excellent microphonics due to the monolithic design and provides a dynamically adjustable solution in advanced communications applications.

Varying the applied analog tuning voltage between 0 V and 14 V at the VFCTL pin varies the center frequency between 3.45 GHz and 6.25 GHz. The bandwidth of the filter is adjustable by using the VBWCTL control voltage, which varies from 0 V to 14 V. Typical operation is to tie both VFCTL and VBWCTL control voltages together.

RFIN and RFOUT are dc-coupled and require external 100 pF series capacitors (C1 and C2). Figure 26. Typical Application Circuit EVALUATION PCB INFORMATION The printed circuit board (PCB) used in the application uses radio frequency (RF) circuit design techniques. Signal lines must have a 50 impedance while the package ground leads and exposed pad must be connected directly to the ground plane (see Figure 28). Use a sufficient number of via holes to connect the top and bottom ground planes. The evaluation PCB shown in Figure 28 is available from Analog Devices, Inc., upon request. The HMC890ALP5E evaluation board in Figure 28 is used to evaluate the HMC892ALP5E device. Table 4.
