HMC449LC3B v02.1208 SMT GaAs MMIC x2 ACTIVE FREQUENCY MULTIPLIER, 27 - 31 GHz OUTPUT Typical Applications Features Output Power: +9 dBm Wide Input Power Range: -4 to +6 dBm Fo Isolation: 30 dBc @ Fout= 28 GHz 7 FREQ. MULTIPLIERS - ACTIVE - SMT The HMC449LC3B is suitable for: • Point-to-Point & Multi-Point Radios • VSAT Radios • Military EW, ECM, C I • Test Instrumentation • Military & Space 3 100 kHz SSB Phase Noise: -132 dBc/Hz Single Supply: 5V@ 50 mA RoHS Compliant 3x3 mm SMT Package Functional Diagram General Description The HMC449LC3B is a x2 active broadband frequency multiplier utilizing GaAs PHEMT technology in a leadless RoHS SMT package. When driven by a 0 dBm signal the multiplier provides +9 dBm typical output power from 27 to 31 GHz. The Fo and 3Fo isolations are >25 dBc and >30 dBc respectively at 30 GHz. The HMC449LC3B is ideal for use in LO multiplier chains yielding a reduced parts count vs. traditional approaches. The low additive SSB Phase Noise of -132 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz offset helps maintain good system noise performance. The HMC449LC3B eliminates the need for wire bonding, allowing the use of surface mount manufacturing techniques.
