HMC917LP3E v00.0410 SMT MMIC x4 ACTIVE FREQUENCY MULTIPLIER, 6 - 10 GHz OUTPUT Typical Applications Features The HMC917LP3E is Ideal for: Output Power: 2 dBm Typical •Microwave Radio & VSAT Spurious Suppression: >20 dBc •Military Radios, Radar & ECM SSB Phase Noise: -148 dBc/Hz @ 100 kHz Offset E •Test Instrumentation Single Supply: 5V@ 91 mA 5 16 Lead 3x3 mm SMT Package: 9mm² T T M Functional Diagram General DeEscription S The HMC917LP3E is an active x4 frequency multi- - plier housed in a 3x3 mm leadless QFN surface E mouLnt package. Power output is 2 dBm typical from V a single +5V supply and varies little vs. input power, I T temperature and supply voltage. Suppression of C O undesired fundamental and spurious is 20 dBc A typical with respect to output signal level. The low - additive SSB phase noise of -148 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz S offset helps the user maintain good system noise R S performance. The HMC917LP3E is ideal for use in LO E multiplier chains allowing reduced parts count versus I L traditional approaches. P B I T L U M O .
