Family of quadband VCOs offering best SNR for high performance applications from Analog Devices.

Quadband VCOs are unique solutions that offer wideband capability without compromising on phase noise.

●  HMC8364*: 18.1 GHz – 26.6 GHz (Lead part)
●  HMC8362: 11.9 GHz – 18.3 GHz
●  HMC8074: 8.3 GHz - 15.2 GHz (released in 2019)

Key Features and Benefits

●  Wideband Frequency 8.3 to 26.6 GHz gives frequency flexibility to optimize cost of ownership
●  Fundamental frequencies avoid sub-harmonic tones
●  Provide low phase noise performance similar to narrow band VCO's, while offering large bandwidth. Best SNR in instrumentation and Defense high performance applications.
●  Lower tuning voltage (0.5 to 13.5V) simplifies Loop Filter design compared to traditional Wideband VCO's

Applications

●  Instrumentation: Electronic Test & Measurement and Automated Test Equipment; 5G instrumentation, Signal Analyzers, VNA, Oscilloscope
●  Aerospace and Defense: Electronic Warfare; Milcom; Missiles and Precision Munitions; Unmanned systems; Radar; Avionics
●  Communications: Point to Point Microwave
