The HMC188MS8 is a miniature passive frequency doubler manufactured by Analog Devices Inc. utilizing GaAs MMIC technology. It operates within a frequency range of 1.25 GHz to 3.0 GHz, providing a bandwidth of 3 GHz. The component is housed in an 8-lead MSOP plastic package with SMD/SMT termination. It supports board mount installation and functions within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. This device is designed for signal conditioning applications requiring efficient harmonic generation.
Verify current availability status as the HMC188MS8 is listed as obsolete or discontinued by Analog Devices. Confirm end-of-life notices and check for authorized distributors handling remaining stock or alternative packaging types. Ensure compliance with RoHS requirements and lead time constraints associated with legacy components before finalizing procurement plans.
Select this component for designs requiring passive frequency doubling in the 1.25–3.0 GHz range. Consider the MSOP-8 footprint for surface-mount assembly. Evaluate thermal performance within the specified -40°C to +85°C operating range. Verify compatibility with VSAT, HiperLAN, or UNII system architectures. Assess supply chain risks due to discontinuation status when integrating into new production cycles.
The HMC188MS8 belongs to the HMC188 series of RF signal conditioning components. It is part of Analog Devices' portfolio of GaAs MMIC devices designed for microwave and millimeter-wave applications. The series focuses on compact, high-performance solutions for frequency conversion tasks in wireless communication infrastructure.
Public documentation identifies HMC1096LP3E as a similar replacement option for the HMC188MS8.
