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
