General Description
The HMC363 is a low noise Divide-by-8 Static
Divider with InGaP GaAs HBT technology that
has a small size of 0.686 mm x 1.448 mm. This
device operates from DC (with a square wave
input) to 12 GHz input frequency with a single
+5.0V DC supply. The low additive SSB phase
noise of -153 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz offset helps the
user maintain good system noise performance.
