MMIC divide-by-3 sets bandwidth benchmark

The HMC861LP3E programmable frequency divider is claimed by the company as the only known MMIC divide-by-3 available in the marketplace which operates to 13 GHz.The part exhibits a low additive phase noise of –152 dBc/Hz in divide-by-1 mode, and –153 dBc/Hz in divide-by-3 mode. It is ideal for synthesizer and phase locked loop applications in wideband and high data rate communication systems.

Housed in a 3 x 3-mm RoHS compliant QFN leadless SMT package, the part accepts input signal levels from –10 to 10 dBm, while delivering 2 dBm of output power. The division ratio of the HMC861LP3E is selected by a single CMOS compatible input and the device is powered from a 5 V supply.Operating voltage is from –40° to 85°C. ($15.25 ea/10-99 — samples now)
