HMC439QS16G / 439QS16GE

HBT DIGITAL PHASE-FREQUENCY

DETECTOR, 10 - 1300 MHz

General Description

Features

Functional Diagram

The HMC439QS16G & HMC439QS16GE are digital

phase-frequency detectors intended for use in low

noise phase-locked loop applications for inputs from

10 to 1300 MHz. Its combination of high frequency

of operation along with its ultra low phase noise

 oor make possible synthesizers with wide loop

bandwidth and low N resulting in fast switching and

very low phase noise. When used in conjunction with

a differential loop ampli er, the HMC439QS16G &

HMC439QS16GE generate output voltages that can

be used to phase lock a VCO to a reference oscillator.

The device is packaged in a low cost, surface mount

16 lead QSOP package with an exposed base for

improved RF and thermal performance.

Ultra Low SSB Phase Noise Floor:

-153 dBc/Hz @ 10 kHz offset @ 100 MHz

Input up to 1300 MHz Fin.

Differential Input/Single Ended Output

Open Collector Output Buffer Ampli ers

QSOP16G SMT Package: 29.4 mm2

Electrical Speci cations, TA = +25° C, Vcc= 5V

Typical Applications

This Phase Frequency Detector is a key component

in low phase noise frequency synthesis applications

such as:

• Point-to-Point Radios

• Satellite Communication Systems

• Military Applications

• Sonet Clock Generation

best noise performance

The circuit board used in the  nal application should use RF circuit design techniques. Signal lines should have 50

ohm impedance while the package ground leads and backside ground slug should be connected 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.
