Overview
The HMC438MS8GETR is a low-noise, divide-by-5 static prescaler utilizing InGaP GaAs HBT technology. It operates from DC to 7 GHz with a fixed division ratio of 5. The device requires a 5 V supply and draws 80 mA. It features an output power of -1 dBm and is housed in an 8-lead MS8G surface-mount package. Operating temperatures range from -40°C to +85°C.
Feature Summary
- Implements divide-by-5 frequency division using InGaP GaAs HBT technology for low noise performance.
- Operates as a static divider covering a wide frequency range from DC up to 7 GHz.
- Utilizes a compact 8-lead surface mount plastic package for cost-effective integration.
Applications
- RF signal processing systems
- Frequency synthesis circuits
- Wireless communication infrastructure
Procurement Notes
Verify the specific suffix GE against official Analog Devices documentation to confirm RoHS compliance status. Ensure the ordering part number matches the required tape-and-reel configuration (TR) versus cut-tape availability. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with current datasheet revisions to validate technical specifications before procurement.
Selection Notes
Select this component when a fixed divide-by-5 ratio is required for frequencies extending to 7 GHz. The InGaP HBT technology offers a balance of low noise and cost efficiency compared to other MMIC options. Consider the 8-lead MS8G package constraints for PCB layout and thermal management within the specified operating temperature range.
Part Context
This prescaler belongs to the HMC438 series from Analog Devices, designed for RF applications. It complements other frequency control components by providing stable division ratios. The series utilizes advanced semiconductor processes to ensure reliability in wireless and test equipment environments requiring precise frequency handling.
Replacement Considerations
HMC438MS8G is the non-lead-free variant of this component. Verify if lead-free compliance is mandatory for the target application before substituting between the G and GE suffixes.
