General Description
The HMC433(E) is a low noise Divide-by-4 Static Divider utilizing InGaP GaAs HBT technology in ultra small surface mount SOT26 plastic packages. This device operates from DC (with a square wave input) to 8 GHz input frequency with a single +3V DC supply. Single-ended inputs and outputs reduce component count and cost. The low additive SSB phase noise of -150 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz offset helps the user maintain good system noise performance.

The circuit board used in the application should use RF circuit design techniques. Signal lines should have 50 Ohm impedance while the package ground leads should be connected 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 circuit board shown is available from Hittite upon request.
