HMC916LP3E v00.0410 SMT MMIC x3 ACTIVE FREQUENCY MULTIPLIER, 8 - 16 GHz OUTPUT Typical Applications Features The HMC916LP3E is Ideal for: Output Power: 2 dBm * Microwave Radio & VSAT Spurious Suppression: >15 dBc * Military Radios, Radar & ECM SSB Phase Noise: -152 dBc/Hz @ 100 kHz Offset * Test Instrumentation Single Supply: +5V @ 83 mA TE Functional Diagram General Description B SO LE The HMC916LP3E is an active x3 frequency multiplier in a 3x3 mm leadless QFN surface mount package. Power output is 2 dBm typical from a single +5V supply and varies little vs. input power, temperature and supply voltage. Suppression of undesired fundamental and spurious is 15 dBc typical with respect to output signal level. The low additive SSB phase noise of -152 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz offset helps the user maintain good system noise performance. The HMC916LP3E is ideal for use in LO multiplier chains allowing reduced parts count versus traditional approaches. Electrical Specifications, TA = +25 C, Vcc= 5V [1] O Freq.
