General Description
The HMC-C070 MicroSynth™ is a fully integrated
broadband synthesizer module that combines high
performance SiGe, GaAs pHEMT, and InGaP HBT
technologies into one compact hermetic package.
The output frequency range is 5.5 to 10.5 GHz
with an average output power of +21 dBm, which
is enough to drive two mixers. In fractional-N mode,
the HMC-C070 can realize step sizes as low as
1.2 Hz. The HMC-C070 also features fully integrated
low noise regulators and an output buffer amplifier
which results in superior pushing and pulling
performance. This module has been designed to
withstand harsh environments and can be upscre-
ened to higher military standards upon request.
For theory of operation and register map refer to
the MicroSynth™ Operating Guide. To view the
