The HMC-C056 is a x2 active broadband frequency multiplier utilizing GaAs PHEMT technology in a miniature hermetic module. When driven by a 6 dBm signal, the multiplier provides +14 dBm typical output power from 8 - 21 GHz. The Fo isolation is 16 dBc @ 15 GHz with respect to output signal level. This frequency multiplier features DC blocked I/O's, and is ideal for use in LO multiplier chains for Pt to Pt & VSAT Radios yielding reduced parts count vs. traditional approaches. The low additive SSB Phase Noise of -142 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz offset helps maintain good system noise performance.
