Functional Diagram
General Description
The HMC814LC3B is a x2 active broadband frequ-
ency multiplier utilizing GaAs pHEMT technology
in a leadless RoHS compliant SMT package. When
driven by a +4 dBm signal, the multiplier provides
+17 dBm typical output power from 13 to 24.6 GHz.
The Fo, 3Fo and 4Fo isolations are >20 dBc at 19 GHz.
The HMC814LC3B is ideal for use in LO multiplier
chains for Pt-to-Pt & VSAT Radios yielding reduced
parts count vs. traditional approaches. The low ad-
ditive SSB Phase Noise of -136 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz
offset helps maintain good system noise perfor-
mance. The RoHS packaged HMC814LC3B elim-
inates the need for wire bonding, and allows the use of
surface mount manufacturing techniques.
