General Description
The HMC561LP3 & HMC561LP3E are x2 active
broadband frequency multipliers utilizing GaAs
PHEMT technology in a leadless RoHS compliant
SMT package. When driven by a +5 dBm signal, the
multiplier provides +14 dBm typical output power from
8 to 21 GHz and the Fo and 3Fo isolations are 15 dBc
at 16 GHz. The HMC561LP3(E) 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 -139 dBc/Hz at
100 kHz offset helps maintain good system noise
performance. The RoHS packaged HMC561LP3(E)
eliminates the need for wire bonding, and allows the
use of surface mount manufacturing techniques.
