HMC8362LP6GE

HMC8362 is a gallium arsenide (GaAs), quadband, monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC), voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) designed to offer wideband capabilities without compromising on phase noise performance. The device integrates four independent, narrow-band VCOs with overlapping frequency bands, operating at a fundamental frequency range of 11.90GHz to 18.30GHz. The consistent tuning sensitivity across all frequency bands simplifies the synthesizer loop filter design. The tuning port is common to all VCO cores for a simpler design of the phase-locked loop (PLL) feedback path. The HMC8362 also offers a low typical current consumption of 72mA for power sensitive applications. The HMC8362 integrates resonators, negative resistance devices, and varactor diodes. Application includes electronic test and measurement, industrial and medical instrumentation, point to point and multipoint radios, aerospace and defense, wireless communication infrastructure.
