Overview
The HMC587LC4BTR-R5, produced by Analog Devices Inc., is a wideband GaAs InGaP Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO) designed for high-performance applications. This VCO integrates the resonator, negative resistance device, and varactor diode into a single monolithic structure, ensuring excellent output power and phase noise performance over a wide temperature range. The device operates from a single +5V supply, consuming only 55 mA of current, and is housed in a RoHS compliant 4x4 mm SMT package.
