HMC531LP5E (ANALOG DEVICES)

The HMC531LP5E is a GaAs InGaP Hetero-junction Bipolar Transistor (HBT) MMIC VCO integrates resonators, negative resistance devices, varactor diodes and features half frequency and divide-by-4 outputs. The VCOs phase noise performance is excellent over temperature, shock and process due to the oscillator's monolithic structure. Power output is 7dBm typical from a 5V supply voltage. The prescaler function can be disabled to conserve current if not required. The voltage controlled oscillator is packaged in a leadless surface mount package and requires no external matching components.
