HMC899LP4E

HMC899LP4E v00.0211 FILTER - TUNABLE, BAND PASS SMT 18.5 - 37.0 GHz Features Fast Tuning Response Excellent Wideband Rejection Single Chip Replacement for Mechanically Tuned Designs 24 Lead 4x4 mm SMT Package 3 FILTERS - TUNABLE - SMT Typical Applications The HMC899LP4E is ideal for: • Test & Measurement Equipment • Military RADAR & EW/ECM • SATCOM & Space • Industrial & Medical Equipment Functional Diagram General Description The HMC899LP4E is a MMIC band pass filter which features a user selectable passband frequency. The 3 dB filter bandwidth is approximately 18%. The 20 dB filter bandwidth is approximately 35%. The center frequency can be varied between 18.5 and 37.0 GHz by applying an analog tune voltage between 0 and 14V. This tunable filter can be used as a much smaller alternative to physically large switched filter banks and cavity tuned filters. The HMC899LP4E has excellent microphonics due to the monolithic design, and provides a dynamically adjustable solution in advanced communications applications. Electrical Specifications, TA = +25 °C Parameter Fcenter Tuning Range 3 dB Bandwidth Low Side Rejection Frequency (Rejection >20 dB) High Side Rejection Frequency (Rejection >20 dB) Low Side Sub-Harmonic Rejection (Rejection >40 dB) High Side Sub-Harmonic Rejection (Rejection >40 dB) Re-entry Frequency (Rejection = 1V) Frequency Control Voltage (Vfctl) Source/Sink Current (Ifctl) Residual Phase Noise [1] (100 kHz Offset) Fcenter Drift Rate Tuning Speed, Phase Settling to within 10° [2] [1] Optimum residual phase noise performance requires the use of a low noise driver circuit.
