HMC434SRJZ-EP-R7

Overview

The HMC434SRJZ-EP-R7 is a low-noise, static divide-by-8 prescaler monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) manufactured by Analog Devices Inc. It utilizes Indium Gallium Phosphide/Gallium Arsenide (InGaP HBT) technology to deliver high-performance frequency division in a compact SOT-23-6 surface-mount package. The device operates within a frequency range of 200 MHz to 8 GHz and requires a supply voltage between 2.85 V and 3.15 V. Designed for military and aerospace applications, it functions reliably across an extended temperature range from -55°C to +105°C.

Feature Summary

• Implements InGaP HBT technology for enhanced radiation tolerance and reliability suitable for harsh environments.
• Provides static divide-by-8 frequency division with low noise characteristics for precise signal processing.
• Engineered for operation across a wide temperature spectrum to support demanding military and aerospace standards.

Applications

• WLAN systems requiring robust frequency synthesis
• Military communication equipment
• Aerospace radar subsystems

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized Analog Devices channels or certified distributors. Confirm that the specific suffix matches the required packaging format. Request full traceability documentation including lot codes and material declarations. Ensure environmental compliance records align with project specifications. Validate technical parameters against the official datasheet prior to integration.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a divide-by-8 prescaler is required for frequencies up to 8 GHz. Consider the SOT-23-6 footprint for space-constrained designs. Evaluate thermal management requirements given the operational range. Verify power supply stability within the specified voltage limits. Assess radiation hardness needs for the target deployment environment.

Part Context

This part belongs to the HMC434-EP family of pre-scalers designed for extreme performance. It shares functional similarities with other EP series components but offers specific divide-by-8 capabilities. The product line targets applications requiring high reliability and radiation tolerance in RF signal chains.

Replacement Considerations

HMC434SRJZ-EP-PT serves as a tray-packaged alternative with identical electrical specifications. HMC434SRJZ-EP-R7 is the standard reel version. Verify package compatibility and handling procedures when substituting between tape-and-reel and tray formats.
