HMC582LP5

Overview

The HMC582LP5 is a Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO) from Analog Devices, operating within the 11.1 GHz to 12.4 GHz frequency range. It features three outputs: a standard RF output, a half-frequency output (Fo/2), and a divided-by-four output (Div/4). The device operates on a supply voltage between 4.75 V and 5.25 V with a tuning voltage range of 2 VDC to 12 VDC. Key electrical specifications include a phase noise of -110 dBc/Hz, a push of 30 MHz/V, and a secondary harmonic level of 25 dBc. It draws 390 mA of current and is housed in a QFN-32 package.

Feature Summary

• Provides triple output configurations including fundamental, half-frequency, and divided-by-four signals for flexible system integration.
• Delivers low phase noise performance suitable for high-frequency microwave applications.
• Features AC-coupled RF and half-frequency outputs to simplify interface requirements.

Applications

• Microwave communication systems
• Test and measurement equipment
• Electronic warfare systems

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized Analog Devices distributors or certified partners. Confirm RoHS compliance status and moisture sensitivity level (MSL 3) prior to soldering. Ensure storage conditions meet humidity control standards to prevent damage. Check for specific ordering suffixes if tape-and-reel packaging is required instead of cut tape. Validate pinout compatibility with target PCB footprint before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a wideband VCO covering 11.1–12.4 GHz is required with integrated frequency division capabilities. Consider the 390 mA current draw and 5 V supply requirement for power budget calculations. The QFN-32 package necessitates appropriate thermal management and surface-mount assembly processes. Evaluate the -110 dBc/Hz phase noise against system jitter tolerance requirements.
