HMC8364LP6GE

HMC8364 is a gallium arsenide (GaAs), quadband, monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC), voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) designed to offer wideband frequency capabilities without compromising phase noise performance. The consistent tuning sensitivity across all frequency bands simplifies the synthesizer loop filter design. The tuning port is common to all VCO cores for a simpler design of the phase-locked loop (PLL) feedback path. The HMC8364 integrates resonators, negative resistance devices, and varactor diodes. The monolithic structure of the oscillator offers very low phase noise, optimal temperature stability, and is immune to vibration and process variation. Application includes electronic test and measurement, industrial and medical instrumentation, point to point and multipoint radios, aerospace and defence, wireless communication infrastructure.
