Overview
The HMC734LP5(E) from Analog Devices Inc. is a GaAs InGaP Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor (HBT) Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuit (MMIC) Voltage-Controlled Oscillator (VCO). This device integrates a resonator, negative resistance device, and varactor diode, and features a divide-by-4 frequency output. The VCO is known for its excellent phase noise performance over temperature, shock, and process variations due to its monolithic structure. It operates from a +5V supply voltage and provides a typical power output of +18 dBm.
The HMC734LP5(E) is packaged in a leadless QFN 5x5 mm surface mount package, requiring no external matching components. This makes it a compact and efficient solution for various high-frequency applications.
