HMC933LP4E v02.0211 Typical Applications Features The HMC933LP4E is ideal for: Wide Bandwidth: 18 - 24 GHz * EW Receivers 470 Phase Shift * Military Radar Low Insertion Loss: 4.5 dB * Test Equipment Low Phase Error: 10 deg Typ. * Satellite Communications Single Positive Voltage Control TE 24 Lead 4x4 mm QFN Package: 16 mm * Beam Forming Modules Functional Diagram General Description The HMC933LP4E is an Analog Phase Shifter which is controlled via an analog control voltage from 0 to +13V. The HMC933LP4E provides a continuously variable phase shift of 0 to 470 degrees from 18 to 24 GHz, with extremely consistent low insertion loss versus phase shift and frequency. The high accuracy HMC933LP4E is monotonic with respect to control voltage and features a typical low phase error of 10 degrees over a wide bandwidth. The HMC933LP4E is housed in an RoHS compliant 4x4 mm QFN leadless package.
