General Description
The HMC583LP5 & HMC583LP5E are GaAs InGaP
Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor (HBT) MMIC VCOs.
The HMC583LP5 & HMC583LP5E integrate resonators, negative resistance devices, varactor diodes
and feature half frequency and divide-by-4 outputs.
The VCO’s phase noise performance is excellent over
temperature, shock, and process due to the oscillator’s
monolithic structure. Power output is +11 dBm typical
from a +5V supply voltage. The prescaler and RF/2
functions can be disabled to conserve current if not
required. The voltage controlled oscillator is packaged
in a leadless QFN 5x5 mm surface mount package,
and requires no external matching components.
