1 v1.1 HMC9LP3E Typical Applications The HMC9LP3E is ideal for: LO Generation with Low Noise Floor Software Defined Radios Clock Generators Fast Switching Synthesizers Military Applications Test Equipment Sensors Functional Diagram Features Low Noise Floor: -16 dbc/hz at 1 MHz Offset for N = Programmable Frequency Divider, N = 1, 2, 3 or MHz to 6 GHz Input Frequency Range Up to +6 dbm Output Power Sleep Mode: Consumes <1 µa 16 Lead 3X3 mm SMT Package: 9mm 2 General Description Electrical Specifications, T A = +2 C, Vcc = +3.3V, Z o = Ω The HMC9LP3E is a SiGe BiCMOS low noise programmable frequency divider in a 3x3 mm leadless surface mount package. The circuit can be programmed to divide from N = 1 to N = in the MHz to 6 GHz input frequency range. The high level output power (up to 6 dbm single ended) with a very low SSB phase noise and % duty cycle makes this device ideal for low noise clock generation, LO generation and LO drive applications. Configurable bias and output power controls allow current consumption and output power control. The device incorporates a power down feature, good input to output isolation and fast start up time. The HMC9LP3E can be included into fast switching ping-pong applications. Parameter Conditions Min. Typ. Max.

Typically Ohms connected to Vcc. Divider Positive Output, Open Drain. Typically Ohms connected to Vcc. The HMC9LP3E is a high performance RF divider. Such dividers are high gain devices with internal feedback. The device will oscillate if used with AC coupled RF inputs and if no RF input is applied. Normally, if the RF input signal is removed the device should be disabled, or it should be placed in divide by 1 mode. The device is stable in divide by one mode with no RF input. The device will oscillate in divide 2, 3, or modes with no RF input. In general, very small RF input levels will stop all oscillations. At the minimum rated RF input sensitivity level or higher, no oscillations or spurious signals exist and excellent low noise performance is achieved. For input frequency lower than MHz, square wave input signal is recommended. For single ended applications, apply the signal on the positive input RFinp and terminate the unused output with ohms.
