x2 Active Multiplier Chip, 13 - 24.6 GHz Fout

The HMC814 is a x2 active broadband frequency multiplier chip utilizing GaAs PHEMT technology. When driven by a +4 dBm signal, the multiplier provides +17 dBm typical output power from 13 to 24.6 GHz. The Fo, 3Fo and 4Fo isolations are >20 dBc at 19 GHz. The HMC814 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 -136 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz offset helps maintain good system noise performance. All data is taken with the chip connected via two 0.025mm (1 mil) wire bonds of minimal length 0.31 mm (12 mils).
