HMC794 2 GHz Low Noise Programmable Divider (N = 1 to 4) SMT

Product Details

The HMC794LP3E is a SiGe BiCMOS low noise programmable frequency divider in a 3 × 3mm leadless surface mount package. The circuit can be programmed to divide from N = 1 to N = 4 in the 200 MHz to 2 GHz input frequency range. The high level output power (up to 10 dBm) with a very low SSB phase noise and 50% duty cycle makes this device ideal for low noise clock generation, LO generation and LO drive applications. Configurable bias controls allow power minimization of up to 20%.
