Description

The HMC1166 is a monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC), voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) that integrates a resonator, a negative resistance device, and a varactor diode, 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 output power is 11 dBm typical from a 5 V supply voltage. The VCO is housed in a RoHS-compliant LFCSP and requires no external matching components.Applications Point to point and multipoint radios Test equipment and industrial controls Very small aperture terminals (VSATs)
