General Description
The HMC561 is a x2 active broadband frequency
multiplier chip utilizing GaAs PHEMT technology.
When driven by a +5 dBm signal, the multiplier pro-
vides +17 dBm typical output power from 8 to 21 GHz
and the Fo and 3Fo isolations are 15 dBc at 16 GHz.
The HMC561 is ideal for use in LO multiplier chains
for Pt to Pt & VSAT Radios yielding reduced parts
count vs. traditional approaches. The low additive
SSB Phase Noise of -139 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz offset
helps maintain good system noise performance.
Electrical Specifications, T_A = +25°C, Vdd1 = Vdd2 = +5V, 5 dBm Drive Level ^[1]
