Overview
The HMC365S8G and HMC365S8GE are low noise Divide-by-4 Static Dividers developed by Analog Devices Inc. These devices utilize InGaP GaAs HBT technology and are packaged in 8-lead surface mount plastic packages. They operate from DC (with a square wave input) to 13 GHz input frequency, making them versatile for a wide range of applications. The devices are powered by a single +5V DC supply and are known for their ultra-low additive SSB phase noise of -151 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz offset, which helps maintain good system noise performance.
