Overview
The HMC434SRJZ-EP-R7, produced by Analog Devices Inc., is a low noise, static, divide by 8 prescaler monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC). It utilizes indium gallium phosphide/gallium arsenide (InGaP/GaAs) heterojunction bipolar transistor (HBT) technology and is packaged in an ultrasmall 6-lead SOT-23 package. This component operates from near DC (square wave) or 200 MHz (sine wave) to 8 GHz input frequency with a single 3 V DC supply. It features single-ended inputs and outputs, reducing component count and cost, and is known for its low additive single-sideband (SSB) phase noise, which helps maintain optimal system noise performance.
