General Description
The HMC-C034 is a x2 active broadband frequency
multiplier utilizing GaAs PHEMT technology in a
miniature hermetic module. When driven by a 3 dBm
signal, the multiplier provides +13 dBm typical output
power from 32 to 46 GHz. The Fo isolation is >30 dBc
with respect to output signal level. This frequency
multiplier features DC blocked I/O’s, and is ideal
for use in LO multiplier chains for Pt to Pt & VSAT
Radios yielding reduced parts count vs. traditional
approaches. The low additive SSB Phase Noise of
-130 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz offset helps maintain good
system noise performance.
