HMC936LP6E

GaAs MMIC 6-BIT DIGITAL

PhAse shIfTer, 1.2 - 1.4 Ghz

v01.0611

General Description

features

functional Diagram

the hMC936LP6e is a 6-bit digital phase shifter

which is rated from 1.2 to 1.4 Ghz, providing 360

degrees of phase coverage, with a LsB of 5.625

degrees. the hMC936LP6e features very low

rMs phase error of 1.2 degrees and extremely low

inser-tion loss variation of ±0.5 dB across all phase

states. this high accuracy phase shifter is controlled

with positive control logic of 0/+5V and requires no

negative supply voltage. the hMC936LP6e is housed

in a compact 6x6 mm plastic leadless sMt package

and is internally matched to 50 Ohms with no external

components.

Low rMs Phase error: 1.2°

Low insertion Loss: 5 dB

high Linearity: +45 dBm
