HMC432E

Overview

The HMC432E is a low noise Divide-by-2 Static Divider utilizing InGaP GaAs HBT technology in an ultra-small surface mount SOT-26 plastic package. It operates from DC (with a square wave input) to 8 GHz input frequency. The device functions as a prescaler with a division factor of 2. It requires a minimum supply voltage of 2.7 V and a maximum of 3.3 V, typically operating at 3 V with a current consumption of 42 mA. The output power is -3 dBm. Operating temperature ranges from -40°C to +85°C.
