HMC530LP5 530LP5E / v07.0411 MMIC VCO w/ HALF FREQUENCY OUTPUT & DIVIDE-BY-4, 9.5 - 10.8 GHz Typical Applications Features Low noise MMIC VCO w/Half Frequency, Divide-by-4 Triple Output: Fo = 9.5 - 10.8 GHz Outputs for: Fo/2 = 4.75 - 5.4 GHz Fo/4 = 2.38 - 2.7 GHz • Point to Point/Multipoint Radio Pout: +11 dBm • Test Equipment & Industrial Controls Phase Noise: -110 dBc/Hz @100 kHz Typ. • SATCOM No External Resonator Needed • Military End-Use 32 Lead 5 x 5 mm SMT Package: 25 mm² Functional Diagram General Description The HMC530LP5 & HMC530LP5E are GaAs InGaP Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor (HBT) MMIC VCOs. The HMC530LP5 & HMC530LP5E integrate resona- tors, negative resistance devices, varactor diodes and feature half frequency and divide-by-4 outputs. The VCO’s phase noise performance is excellent over 8 temperature, shock, and process due to the oscillator’s monolithic structure. Power output is +11 dBm typical from a +5V supply voltage. The prescaler and RF/2 functions can be disabled to conserve current if not T required. The voltage controlled oscillator is packaged M in a leadless QFN 5x5 mm surface mount package, S and requires no external matching components. - T U P T Electrical Specifications, T = +25° C, Vcc (Dig), Vcc (Amp), Vcc (RF) = +5V A U O Parameter Min.
