HMC575LP4 / 575LP4E v00.0506 FREQUENCY MULTIPLIERS - SMT 7 SMT GaAs MMIC x2 ACTIVE FREQUENCY MULTIPLIER, 6 - 9 GHz OUTPUT Typical Applications Features The HMC575LP4 / HMC575LP4E is suitable for: High Output Power: +17 dBm • Wireless Local Loop Low Input Power Drive: -2 to +6 dBm • Point-to-Point & VSAT Radios Fo, 3Fo Isolation: 15 dBc • Test Instrumentation 100 KHz SSB Phase Noise: -140 dBc/Hz • Military & Space Single Supply: +5V@ 90 mA RoHS Compliant 4x4 mm SMT Package Functional Diagram General Description The HMC575LP4 & HMC575LP4E are x2 active broadband frequency multipliers utilizing GaAs PHEMT technology in a leadless RoHS compliant SMT package. When driven by a 3 dBm signal, the multiplier provides +17 dBm typical output power from 6 to 9 GHz. The Fo and 3Fo isolations are 15 dBc with respect to output signal level. This frequency multiplier features DC blocked I/O’s, and 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 -140 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz offset helps maintain good system noise performance. The HMC575LP4 & HMC575LP4E are compatible with surface mount manufacturing techniques.
