GaAs VCOs Deliver up to +9 dBm Output Power and Cover 20.9 to 26.8 GHz!

The HMC738LP4(E) and HMC739LP4(E) are GaAs HBT MMICs that provide superior output power and phase noise performance and are an ideal choice where small size and excellent repeatability is required. The HMC738LP4(E) and HMC739LP4(E) integrate resonators, negative resistance devices, and varactor diodes, and feature fundamental, RF/2, and divide-by-16 outputs.

The HMC738LP4(E) MMIC VCO provides output power of +9 dBm, and delivers very low SSB phase noise of -95 dBc/Hz @ 100 kHz offset.

The HMC739LP4(E) MMIC VCO provides output power of +8 dBm, and delivers a low SSB phase noise of -93 dBc/Hz @ 100 kHz offset. Both VCOs will drive the LO port of many of Hittite's Double-Balanced Mixers, Image Reject Mixers, and I/Q Receiver products.

The HMC738LP4(E) and HMC739LP4(E) are housed in miniature 4x4 mm RoHS compliant QFN leadless SMT packages and are
