HMC582LP5 / 582LP5E v03.0811 MMIC VCO w/ HALF FREQUENCY OUTPUT & DIVIDE-BY-4, 11.1 - 12.4 GHz Typical Applications Features Low noise MMIC VCO w/Half Frequency, Divide-by-4 Outputs for: Triple Output: Fo = 11.1 - 12.4 GHz Fo/2 = 5.55 - 6.2 GHz Fo/4 = 2.78 - 3.1 GHz • Point to Point/Multipoint Radio • Test Equipment & Industrial Controls Pout: +9 dBm Phase Noise: -110 dBc/Hz @100 kHz Typ. • SATCOM • Military End-Use No External Resonator Needed 32 Lead 5x5mm SMT Package: 25mm² Functional Diagram The HMC582LP5 & HMC582LP5E are GaAs InGaP Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor (HBT) MMIC VCOs. The HMC582LP5 & HMC582LP5E integrate resonators, negative resistance devices, varactor diodes and feature half frequency and divide-by-4 outputs. The VCO’s phase noise performance is excellent over temperature, shock, and process due to the oscillator’s monolithic structure. Power output is +9 dBm typical from a +5V supply voltage. The prescaler and RF/2 functions can be disabled to conserve current if not required. The voltage controlled oscillator is packaged in a leadless QFN 5x5 mm surface mount package, and requires no external matching components.
