Functional Diagram
General Description
9
The HMC513LP5 & HMC513LP5E are GaAs InGaP
Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor (HBT) MMIC
VCOs. The HMC513LP5 & HMC513LP5E integrate
resonators, negative resistance devices, varactor
diodes and feature half frequency and divide-by-
4 outputs. The VCO’s phase noise performance is
excellent over temperature, shock, and process due to
the oscillator’s monolithic structure. Power output is +7
dBm typical from a +3V supply voltage. The prescaler
function can be disabled to conserve current if not
required. The voltage controlled oscillator is packaged
in a leadless QFN 5x5 mm surface mount package,
and requires no external matching components.
