HMC584LP5TR

Overview

The HMC584LP5TR is a Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO) from Analog Devices Inc., operating within the 12.5 GHz to 13.9 GHz frequency range. It integrates Fo/2 and Div/4 outputs, housed in a QFN-32 surface-mount package. The device requires a supply voltage between 4.75 V and 5.25 V, drawing approximately 380 mA. It features a tuning voltage range of 2 VDC to 12 VDC with a push of 20 MHz/V. Phase noise is specified at -110 dBc/Hz, and secondary harmonic suppression is 34 dBc. Operating temperatures span from -40°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Integrates half-frequency (Fo/2) and divide-by-four (Div/4) outputs for flexible signal distribution
• Ultra-low phase noise performance optimized for wideband applications
• Surface-mount QFN-32 package design for compact integration

Applications

• Wideband communication systems requiring stable local oscillation
• Test and measurement instrumentation needing low phase noise sources

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized Analog Devices distributors or certified partners. Confirm RoHS compliance status as indicated on official documentation. Ensure storage conditions meet moisture sensitivity level requirements prior to soldering. Validate part marking against official datasheet specifications to prevent counterfeit substitution during assembly processes.

Selection Notes

Select this VCO when specific output frequencies between 12.5 GHz and 13.9 GHz are required alongside divided outputs. Consider the 380 mA current draw and 5 V supply requirement for power budget calculations. The QFN-32 package dictates PCB layout constraints. Evaluate thermal management needs given the operating temperature range up to 85°C and power dissipation characteristics inherent to MMIC designs.
