Data Sheet 8 GHz to 21 GHz, Ga As, p HEMT, x2 Active Frequency Multiplier Module HMC-C056 Features High output power: 14 d Bm typical Input power drive: 0 d Bm to 10 d Bm Single sideband (SSB) phase noise at 100 k Hz offset: - 142 d Bc/Hz Output frequency (f OUT) isolation 16 d Bc at f OUT = 15 GHz Hermetically sealed module (HSM) SMA field replaceable connectors - 55°C to +85°C operating temperature APPLICATIONS Clock generation applications Synchronous optical networking (SONET) optical carrier (OC)-192 and synchronous digital hierarchy (SDH) synchronous transport module (STM)-64 Point to point and very small aperture terminal (VSAT) radios Test instrumentation Military electronic warfare and radar Space GENERAL DESCRIPTION The HMC-C056 is a ×2 active broadband frequency multiplier module, using gallium arsenide (Ga As), pseudomorphic high electron mobility transistor (p HEMT) technology in a miniature HSM. When driven by a 6 d Bm signal, the multiplier provides 14 d Bm typical output power from 8 GHz to 21 GHz. The f OUT isolation is 16 d Bc at 15 GHz with respect to the output signal level. FUNCTIONAL BLOCK DIAGRAM GND 2 +VDC 3 RFIN 1 6 GND RFOUT ×2 4 - VDC Figure 1. 15002-001 The HMC-C056 is a frequency multiplier, featuring dc blocked inputs/outputs. The HMC-C056 is ideal for use in local oscillator (LO) multiplier chains for point to point and VSAT radios yielding reduced devices count vs. traditional approaches. The low additive SSB phase noise of - 142 d Bc/Hz at 100 k Hz offset has minimal impact on system level noise performance. Rev.
