Functional Diagram
General Description
the HMc861LP3e is a low noise programmable frequency divider in a 3 x 3 mm leadless surface mount package. the divider can be programmed to divide from n = 1,3 in the 100 MHz to 13 GHz input frequency range. the low phase noise and wide frequency range make this device ideal for high performance and wide band communication systems.

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.
