Functional Diagram
General Description
the HMC156AC8 is a miniature frequency doubler in
a non-hermetic ceramic surface mount package. sup-
pression of undesired fundamental and higher order
harmonics is 38 dB typical with respect to input signal
levels. the doubler uses the same diode/balun tech-
nology used in Hittite MMiC mixers, features small
size and requires no DC bias.
