HMC507LP5

Overview

The HMC507LP5 is a GaAs InGaP HBT MMIC Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO) operating in the 6.65 GHz to 7.65 GHz frequency range. It features integrated resonators and negative resistance devices within a QFN-32 package. The device requires a supply voltage between 4.75 V and 5.25 V, drawing 242 mA. Tuning is achieved via a control voltage of 2 VDC to 13 VDC, yielding a tuning sensitivity of 15 MHz/V. Key performance metrics include -115 dBc/Hz phase noise and 4 dBc secondary harmonic suppression.

Feature Summary

• Integrates resonators and negative resistance devices for compact design
• Provides Fo/2 output capability
• Utilizes GaAs InGaP HBT MMIC technology

Applications

• Wireless communication systems
• Test and measurement equipment
• Point-to-point microwave links

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized Analog Devices distributors or certified partners. Confirm RoHS status and humidity sensitivity handling requirements prior to assembly. Ensure supply chain documentation matches the specific HMC507LP5 part number to avoid counterfeits. Check current availability as distribution may be restricted in certain regions.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed-frequency VCO in the S-band with integrated harmonics is required. Compare against HMC510LP5 for higher frequency ranges or HMC734LP5 for different tuning characteristics. Ensure the 5V supply and 242 mA current draw fit the system power budget. Verify that the QFN-32 footprint aligns with the PCB layout constraints.

Part Context

Part of the HMC507 series from Analog Devices, designed for high-performance RF applications. The LP5 suffix indicates the specific lead-free QFN-32 packaging variant. This series leverages GaAs HBT technology to balance power consumption and signal integrity in microwave oscillator designs.

Replacement Considerations

HMC507LP5E is an equivalent lead-free variant within the same series. For frequency shifts, consider HMC510LP5 (8.45–9.55 GHz) or HMC734LP5 (8.6–10.2 GHz). Verify pin compatibility and thermal requirements before substitution.
