Functional Diagram
General Description
The HMC430LP4 is a GaAs InGaP Heterojunction
Bipolar Transistor (HBT) MMIC VCO with
integrated resonator, negative resistance device,
varactor diode, and buffer ampli鏗乪r. The VCO鈥檚
phase noise performance is excellent over
temperature, shock, vibration and process due to
the oscillator鈥檚 monolithic structure. Power output
is 2 dBm typical from a 3.0V supply voltage. The
voltage controlled oscillator is packaged in a
low cost leadless QFN 4 x 4 mm surface mount
package.
