HMC534LP5ETR

Overview

The HMC534LP5ETR is a GaAs MMIC Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO) operating within the 10.6 GHz to 11.8 GHz frequency range. It features dual outputs, providing a fundamental frequency (Fo) and a divided-by-two output (Fo/2). The device delivers a typical output power of +11 dBm at Fo with a phase noise of -110 dBc/Hz at a 100 kHz offset. It operates on a single 5 V supply with a maximum current consumption of 300 mA. The tuning voltage range spans from 2 VDC to 13 VDC. The component is housed in a compact 32-lead QFN package measuring 5 mm by 5 mm.

Feature Summary

• Integrates half-frequency output capability for simplified system architecture
• Eliminates the need for external resonators through integrated design
• Provides low phase noise performance suitable for high-frequency applications

Applications

• Test equipment and industrial controls
• Satellite communications (SATCOM)
• Military end-use systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official Analog Devices documentation to ensure correct packaging and lead time specifications. Confirm that the requested variant matches the required RoHS compliance status and temperature rating. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with authorized distributors to validate authenticity and availability status prior to purchase.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-output VCO with integrated divide-by-two functionality is required for Ku-band applications. Ensure the design accommodates the specified 5 V supply voltage and 300 mA current draw. Verify that the 10.6 GHz to 11.8 GHz tuning range aligns with system requirements and that the 32-lead QFN footprint fits the PCB layout constraints.
