PE9303 Datasheet, PDF (1/9 Pages) Peregrine Semiconductor Corp. – 3.5 GHz Low Power CMOS Divide-by-8 Prescaler For RAD-Hard Applications

Product Description
The PE9303 is a high performance monolithic
UltraCMOS^® prescaler with a fixed divide ratio of 8. Its
operating frequency range is 1.5 GHz to 3.5 GHz. The
PE9303 operates on a nominal 3V supply and draws only
14 mA. It is packaged in a small 8-lead pre-formed flat
pack and is ideal for space applications.
The PE9303 is manufactured on Peregrine’s UltraCMOS^®
process, a patented variation of silicon-on-insulator (SOI)
technology on a sapphire substrate, offering the
performance of GaAs with the economy and integration of
conventional CMOS.
