Product Description
The TriQuint TGV2204-FC is a flip-chip voltage
controlled oscillator (VCO) designed to operate at
frequencies that target the automotive Radar
market. The TGV2204-FC is designed using
TriQuint’s proven HBT3 process and front-side Cu
/ Sn pillar technology for simplified assembly and
low interconnect inductance.
The TGV2204-FC is a VCO that typically provides
7 dBm output power at 19 GHz with < -105 dBc/Hz
phase noise
at
1 MHz offset . The integrated
divide-by-8 prescaler eases PLL design. The
TGV2204-FC is an excellent choice for
applications requiring frequency stability in transmit
chain architectures.
The TGV2204-FC has a protective surface
passivation layer providing environmental
robustness.
Lead-free and RoHS compliant.

These ratings represent the maximum operable values for this device. Stresses beyond those listed
under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device and / or affect
device lifetime. These are stress ratings only, and functional operation of the device at these
conditions is not implied.
Combinations of supply voltage, supply current shall not exceed the maximum power dissipation listed

For a median life of 1E+6 hours, Power Dissipation is limited to
Pd(max) = (150 ºC – Tbase ºC)/θjc.
Junction operating temperature will directly affect the device median time to failure (MTTF). For
maximum life, it is recommended that junction temperatures be maintained at the lowest possible
levels.
