MULTIPLIERS - ACTIVE - SMT SMT GaAs MMIC x2 ACTIVE FREQUENCY MULTIPLIER, 27 - 31 GHz OUTPUT Typical Applications Features The HMC577LC4B is suitable for: Very High Output Power: +20 dBm * Clock Generation Applications: SONET OC-192 & SDH STM-64 Low Input Power Drive: -2 to +6 dBm * Point-to-Point & VSAT Radios Very High Fo, 3Fo Isolation: >55 dBc @ Fout= 29 GHz * Test Instrumentation 100 KHz SSB Phase Noise: -128 dBc/Hz * Military & Space Single Supply: +5V @ 213 mA 24 Lead 4x4mm QFN Package: 16mm Functional Diagram General Description The HMC577LC4B is a x2 active broadband frequency multiplier utilizing GaAs PHEMT technology in a leadless RoHS compliant SMT package. When driven by a +5 dBm signal, the multiplier provides +20 dBm typical output power from 27 to 31 GHz. The Fo and 3Fo isolations are >55 dBc at 29 GHz. The HMC577LC4B is ideal for use in LO multiplier chains for Pt-to-Pt & VSAT Radios yielding reduced parts count vs. traditional approaches. The low additive SSB Phase Noise of -128 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz offset helps maintain good system noise performance. The RoHS packaged HMC577LC4B eliminates the need for wire bonding, and allows the use of surface mount manufacturing techniques.
