HMC814-SX

Overview

The HMC814-SX is a GaAs frequency multiplier die manufactured by Analog Devices Inc., designed for RF applications in the DBS and VSAT sectors. It operates within an input frequency range of 6.5 GHz to 12.3 GHz, producing an output frequency between 13 GHz and 24.6 GHz. The component requires a supply voltage ranging from 4.5 V to 5.5 V and draws a typical operating current of 88 mA. It is supplied in a gel pack package and supports maximum operating temperatures up to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Functions as a frequency multiplier for generating higher frequency signals from lower input frequencies.

Applications

• DBS (Direct Broadcast Satellite) systems
• VSAT (Very Small Aperture Terminal) networks

Procurement Notes

Verify availability status carefully, as the component may be subject to limited supply or factory special order constraints. Confirm that the gel pack packaging meets your handling requirements for bare die components. Ensure compatibility with your existing ECAD tools using the provided library loader before finalizing procurement plans.

Selection Notes
