Interface Schematic
Application Note:
The HMC905LP3E is a high performance RF divider. Such dividers are high gain devices with internal feedback. The
device will oscillate if used with AC coupled RF inputs and if no RF input is applied. Normally, if the RF input signal
is removed the device should be disabled, or it should be placed in divide by 1 mode. The device is stable in divide
by one mode with no RF input. The device will oscillate in divide 2, 3, or 4 modes with no RF input. In general, very
small RF input levels will stop all oscillations. At the minimum rated RF input sensitivity level or higher, no oscillations
or spurious signals exist and excellent low noise performance is achieved. For input frequency lower than 400 MHz,
square wave input signal is recommended.
For single ended applications, apply the signal on the positive input RFinp and terminate the unused output with 50
ohms.

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 and backside ground paddle 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.
