HMC429LP4 VCO

General Description

The HMC429LP4 & HMC429LP4E are GaAs InGaP Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor (HBT) MMIC VCOs with integrated resonators, negative resistance devices, varactor diodes, and buffer amplifi ers. Covering 4.45 to 5.0 GHz, the VCO’s phase noise performance is excellent over temperature, shock, vibration and process due to the oscillator’s monolithic structure. Power output is 4.0 dBm typical from a
single supply of 3.0V @ 30mA. The voltage controlled oscillator is packaged in a low cost leadless QFN 4x4 mm surface mount package.

Features

Pout: +4.0 dBm
Phase Noise: -105 dBc/Hz @100 KHz
No External Resonator Needed
Single Supply: 3V @ 30 mA
QFN Leadless SMT Package, 16 mm2

Typical Applications

Low noise MMIC VCO w/Buffer Amplifi er for:
• 802.11a, HiperLAN WLAN
• VSAT, UNII & Microwave Radio
• Test Equipment & Industrial Controls
• Military
