HMC769LP6CE
v01.0112
FRACTIONAL-N PLL WITH
INTEGRATED VCO, 9.05 - 10.15 GHz
The HMC769LP6CE is a fully functioned Fractional-N Phase-Locked-Loop (PLL) Frequency Synthesizer with an
integrated Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO). The input reference frequency range is DC to 350 MHz while the
advanced delta-sigma modulator design in the fractional synthesizer allows both ultra-fine step sizes and very low
spurious products. The highly integrated structure provides excellent phase noise performance over temperature,
shock and process. In addition, the HMC769LP6CE offers frequency sweep and modulation features, external
triggering, double-buffering, exact frequency control, phase modulation and more. The HMC769LP6CE is packaged
in a leadless QFN 6 x 6 mm surface mount package.
For theory of operation and register map refer to the “PLLs w/ Integrated VCO - Microwave VCOs” Operating Guide.
To view the Operating Guide, please visit www.hittite.com and choose HMC769LP6CE from the “Search by Part
Number” pull down menu.

Evaluation PCB
The circuit board used in the application should use RF circuit design techniques. Signal lines should have
50 Ohm impedance while the package ground leads and exposed paddle 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.
