MICROWAVE CORPORATION HMC188MS8 v02.1201 GaAs MMIC SMT PASSIVE FREQUENCY DOUBLER, 1.25 - 3.0 GHz INPUT Typical Applications Features The HMC188MS8 is suitable for: Conversion Loss: 15 dB • Wireless Local Loop Fo, 3Fo, 4Fo Isolation: 45 dB • LMDS, VSAT, and Pt to Pt Radios Input Drive Level: 10 to 20 dBm • UNII & HiperLAN • Test Equipment FREQ. MULTIPLIERS - SMT 11 Functional Diagram The HMC188MS8 is a miniature frequency doubler in a plastic 8-lead MSOP package. The suppression of undesired fundamental and higher order harmonics is 45 dB typical with respect to input signal levels. The doubler uses the same diode/balun technology used in Hittite MMIC mixers. The doubler is ideal for high volume applications where frequency doubling of a lower frequency is more economical than directly generating a higher frequency. The passive Schottky diode doubler technology contributes no measurable additive phase noise onto the multiplied signal.
