9.25 GHz to 10.10 GHz MMIC VCO with Half Frequency Output

The HMC1162 is a monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC), voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) that integrates the resonator, a negative resistance device, and varactor diodes, and features a half frequency output.

Because of the monolithic construction of the oscillator, the output power and phase noise performance are excellent over temperature.

The power output is 11 dBm typical from a 5 V supply voltage. The VCO is housed in a RoHS-compliant, 32-lead LFCSP and requires no external matching components.

APPLICATIONS

* Point to point and multipoint radios

* Test equipment and industrial controls

* Very small aperture terminals (VSATs)

* Dual output

fOUT = 9.25 GHz to 10.10 GHz

fOUT/2 = 4.625 GHz to 5.050 GHz

* Power output (POUT): 11 dBm (typical)
