HMC507LP5E

Overview

The HMC507LP5E is a Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO) from Analog Devices, designed for VSAT applications. It operates in the 6.65 GHz to 7.65 GHz frequency range and features an integrated Fo/2 output. The device utilizes a 32-QFN package and requires a supply voltage between 4.75 V and 5.25 V. Key electrical parameters include a tuning voltage range of 2 VDC to 13 VDC, a typical current consumption of 242 mA, and a push specification of 15 MHz/V. Secondary harmonic suppression is rated at 4 dBc, with phase noise specified at -115 dBc/Hz.

Feature Summary

• Integrated second harmonic output (Fo/2) for simplified system design
• Surface-mount QFN-32 packaging optimized for high-frequency RF circuits
• Low phase noise performance suitable for sensitive communication links

Applications

• VSAT uplink and downlink systems
• Point-to-point microwave radio links
• Satellite communication ground stations

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized Analog Devices distributors or certified partners. Check for moisture sensitivity labeling and ensure proper handling procedures are followed during storage and assembly. Confirm that the specific suffix matches the required tape-and-reel or cut-tape configuration for your manufacturing process.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a stable, low-phase-noise source is required within the 6.65–7.65 GHz band. Consider the integrated Fo/2 output if secondary harmonic generation is needed without additional circuitry. Ensure the control voltage range aligns with available DAC or loop filter outputs in the design.

Part Context
