Output power and phase noise performance are excellent over temperature due to the oscillator's monolithic construction. The Vtune port accepts an analog tuning voltage from 0 to +18V. The HMC586LC4B VCO operates from a single +5V supply, consumes only 55 mA of current, and is housed in a RoHS compliant SMT package. This wideband VCO uniquely combines the attributes of ultra small size, low phase noise, low power consumption, and wide tuning range. Electrical Specifications, TA = +25 C, Vcc = +5V Parameter Min.

C2 4.7 F Capacitor, Tantalum U1 HMC586LC4B VCO PCB [2] 108646 Eval Board [1] Reference this number when ordering complete evaluation PCB The circuit board used in the application should use RF circuit design techniques. Signal lines should have 50 Ohm impedance while the package ground leads and exposed 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.
