Functional Diagram
Typical Applications Features
General Description
FILTER - TUNABLE, LOW PASS SMT
4.5 - 7.6 GHz
Electrical Specications, TA = +25°C
The HMC882LP5E is ideal for:
• Test & Measurement Equipment
• Military RADAR & EW/ECM
• SATCOM & Space
• Industrial & Medical Equipment
Fast Tuning Response; 150 ns
Excellent Wideband Rejection; 40 dB
Single Positive Frequency Control: 0 to +14V
Low Insertion Loss &
User Selectable Cutoff Frequency
Single Chip Replacement
for Mechanically Tuned Designs
32 Lead 5x5 mm SMT Package
The HMC882LP5E is a MMIC low pass lter which
features a user selectable cutoff frequency. The
cutoff frequency can be varied from 4.5 to 7.6 GHz
by applying a single analog tuning voltage between
0 and 14V. This low pass lter provides a low 2.9 dB
insertion loss, 10 dB return loss and 1.23 x ƒcutoff
stopband attenuation of >20 dB. This tunable lter can
be used as a much smaller alternative to physically
large switched lter banks and cavity tuned lters.
The HMC882LP5E has excellent microphonics due
to the monolithic design, and provides a dynamically
adjustable solution in advanced communications
applications. The low pass tunable lter is packaged
in a RoHS compliant 5x5mm QFN leadless package.

Evaluation PCB
The circuit board used in the application should
use RF circuit design techniques. Signal lines sho-
uld have 50 Ohms impedance while the package
ground leads and exposed paddle should be con-
nected directly to the ground plane similar to that
shown. A sufficient number of via holes should be
used to connect the top and bottom ground planes.
The evaluation circuit board shown is available from
Hittite upon request.
