General Description
The HMC331 is a passive miniature frequency
doubler MMIC. Suppression of undesired fundamental
and higher order harmonics is 50 dB typical with
respect to input signal level. The doubler utilizes the
same GaAs Schottky diode/balun technology found
in Hittite MMIC mixers. It features small size, requires
no DC bias, and adds no measurable additive phase
noise onto the multiplied signal.
