MICROWAVE CORPORATION v02.0604 HMC368LP4 Features Output Power: +15 dBm Wide Input Power Range: 0 to +10 dBm 100 kHz SSB Phase Noise: -140 dBc/Hz +5V @ 75 mA Supply 16 mm2 Leadless QFN SMT Package SMT GaAs PHEMT MMIC AMP-DOUBLER-AMP, 9.0 - 16.0 GHz OUTPUT Typical Applications • Microwave Radios & VSAT • Fiber Optic Infrastructure • Military Communications & Radar 11 FREQ. MULTIPLIERS - SMT Functional Diagram General Description The HMC368LP4 is a miniature amp-doubler-amp utilizing GaAs PHEMT technology in a 4 mm x 4 mm leadless surface mount package. When driven by a +2 dBm signal, the multiplier provides +15 dBm typical output power from 9 to 16 GHz. The Fo and the 3Fo isolations are 18 dB typical. The low additive SSB phase noise of -140 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz offset helps the user maintain good system noise performance. The HMC368LP4 is ideal for use in LO multiplier chains allowing reduced parts count vs. traditional approaches.
