The HMC647LP6(E) is a 6-bit digital phase shifter
which is rated from 2.5 - 3.1 GHz, providing 360
degrees of phase coverage, with a LSB of 5.625
degrees. The HMC647LP6(E) features very low RMS
phase error of 1.0 degree and extremely low insertion
loss variation of ±0.4 dB across all phase states. This
high accuracy phase shifter is controlled with positive
control logic of 0/+5V. The HMC647LP6(E) is housed
in a compact 6x6 mm plastic leadless SMT package
and is internally matched to 50 Ohms with no external
components.

Evaluation PCB
The circuit board used in the nal application should
use RF circuit design techniques. Signal lines
should have 50 ohm impedance while the package
ground leads and exposed paddle should be con-
nected 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 board should be mounted to an
appropriate heat sink. The evaluation circuit board
shown is available from Hittite upon request.
