Functional Diagram  
General Description  
The HMC534LP5 & HMC534LP5E are GaAs InGaP  
Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor (HBT) MMIC VCOs.  
The HMC534LP5 & HMC534LP5E integrate resona-  
tors, negative resistance devices, varactor diodes  
and feature half frequency and divide-by-4 outputs.  
The VCO’s phase noise performance is excellent over  
temperature, shock, and process due to the oscillator’s  
monolithic structure. Power output is +
1
1
d
Bm typical  
from a +5V supply voltage. The prescaler and RF/2  
functions can be disabled to conserve current if not  
required. The voltage controlled oscillator is packaged  
in a leadless QFN 5×5 mm surface mount package,  
and requires no external matching components.

The circuit board used in the final application  
should use RF circuit design techniques. Signal  
lines should have 50 Ohm impedance while the  
package ground leads and backside ground paddle  
should be connected directly to the ground plane  
similar to that shown. A sufficient number of via  
holes should be used to connect the top and bottom  
ground planes. The evaluation circuit board shown  
is available from Hittite upon request.
