MICROWAVE CORPORATION HMC437MS8G v01.1002 SMT GaAs HBT MMIC DIVIDE-BY-3, DC - 7.0 GHz FREQ. DIVIDER & DETECTORS - SMT 10 Typical Applications Features Prescaler for DC to C Band PLL Applications: SSB Phase Noise: -153 dBc/Hz @100KHz • UNII, Pt. - Pt. & VSAT Radios Wide Bandwidth • 802.11a & HiperLAN WLAN Output Power: -1 dBm • Fiber Optic Single DC Supply: +5V @ 69 mA • Cellular / 3G Infrastructure MS8G SMT Package Functional Diagram General Description The HMC437MS8G is a low noise Divide-by-3 Static Divider utilizing InGaP GaAs HBT technology in a low cost 8 lead surface mount plastic package. This device operates from DC (with a square wave input) to 7.0 GHz input frequency from a single +5.0V DC supply. The low additive SSB phase noise of -153 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz offset helps the user maintain good system noise performance.

Signal lines should have 50 ohm impedance while the package ground leads and backside ground slug should be connected directly to the ground plane similar to that shown. A sufficient number of via holes should be used to connect the top and bottom ground planes. The evaluation circuit board shown is available from Hittite upon request. This evaluation board is designed for single ended input testing. J2 and J3 provide differential output signals. * Circuit Board Material: Rogers 4350 10 - 94 For price, delivery, and to place orders, please contact Hittite Microwave Corporation: 12 Elizabeth Drive, Chelmsford, MA 01824 Phone: 978-250-3343 Fax: 978-250-3373 Order Online at www.hittite.com MICROWAVE CORPORATION v01.1002 HMC437MS8G SMT GaAs HBT MMIC DIVIDE-BY-3, DC - 7.0 GHz Application Circuit FREQ.
