The HMC1162 is a monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC), voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) that integrates the resonator, a negative resistance device, and varactor diodes, and features a half frequency output.Because of the monolithic construction of the oscillator, the output power and phase noise performance are excellent over temperature.The power output is 11 dBm typical from a 5 V supply voltage. The VCO is housed in a RoHS-compliant, 32-lead LFCSP and requires no external matching components.APPLICATIONSPoint to point and multipoint radiosTest equipment and industrial controlsVery small aperture terminals (VSATs)
