Programmable freq. dividers tackle 15 GHz

The HMC862LP3E and HMC905LP3E SiGe BiCMOS programmable frequency dividers feature low noise and come in SMT packages. The HMC862 can divide by 1, 2, 4, or 8 in the 100-MHz to 15-GHz input frequency range. The HMC905 can divide by 1, 2, 3, or 4 in the 400-MHz to 6-GHz range.

The HMC862 runs on 5 V and has a phase noise of –153 dBc/Hz at offset frequencies greater than 100 kHz, while the HMC905 runs on 3.3 V and has SSB phase noise of –158 dBc/Hz at the same offset. The 905 features output power of up to 6 dBm. They come in 3 x 3-mm RoHS-compliant QFN packages and operate at –40° to 85°C. (Ea/500: HMC862LP3E, $13.87; HMC905LP3E, $21.30 — available now.)
