HMC928LP5E v02.1210 Typical Applications Features The HMC928LP5E is ideal for: Octave Bandwidth: 2 - 4 GHz • EW Receivers 450° Phase Shift • Military Radar Low Insertion Loss: 3.5 dB • Test Equipment Low Phase Error: ±5 Typical • Satellite Communications Single Positive Voltage Control • Beamforming Modules Functional Diagram 32 Lead 5x5 mm SMT Package: 25 mm² General Description The HMC928LP5E is an Analog Phase Shifter which is controlled via an analog control voltage from 0 to +13V. The HMC928LP5E provides a continuously variable phase shift of 0 to 450 degrees from 2 to 4 GHz, with extremely consistent low insertion loss versus phase shift and frequency. The high accuracy HMC928LP5E is monotonic with respect to control voltage and features a typical low phase error of ±5 degrees over an octave bandwidth. The HMC928LP5E is housed in an RoHS compliant 5x5 mm QFN leadless package. 13 Phase Shifters - ANALOG - SMT 450° Analog Phase Shifter, 2 - 4 GHz Electrical Specifications, TA = +25° C, 50 Ohm System Parameter Frequency (GHz) Min.
