HMC896LP4E v00.0511 FILTER - TUNABLE, BAND PASS SMT 10 - 18 GHz Typical Applications Features The HMC896LP4E is ideal for: Fast Tuning Response Excellent Wideband Rejection Test & Measurement Equipment Tunable low side/high side rejection notch Military RADAR & EW/ECM Single Chip Replacement SATCOM & Space for Mechanically Tuned Designs Industrial & Medical Equipment 24 Lead 4x4 mm SMT Package Functional Diagram General Description The HMC896LP4E is a MMIC band pass filter which features a user selectable passband frequency. The 3 dB filter bandwidth is approximately 9%. The 20 dB filter bandwidth is approximately 22%. The center frequency can be varied between 10 and 18 GHz by applying an analog tune voltage between 0 and 14V. This tunable filter can be used as a much smaller alternative to physically large switched filter banks and cavity tuned filters. The HMC896LP4E has excellent microphonics due to the monolithic design, and provides a dynamically adjustable solution in advanced communications applications.
