HMC704LP4E Analog Devices

HMC704LP4E Analog Devices Profile

HMC704LP4E is a high-performance clock generator and distributor integrated circuit designed and manufactured by Analog Devices. It is a low-jitter clock generator that features 14 universal outputs, and it supports multiple input clock frequencies, including LVCMOS, LVDS, LVPECL, and CML. This IC also offers flexible frequency configuration options through its serial interface.

The HMC704LP4E integrates a PLL (Phase Locked Loop) that allows for generating an output frequency range from 25.6MHz to 3.6GHz. It can achieve a low jitter of fewer than 70 fs RMS (Root Mean Square) typical over the frequency range of 12kHz to 20MHz.

The HMC704LP4E has numerous applications in high-speed communications, test and measurement equipment, and radar systems. The device is available in a 48-pin LFCSP (Lead Frame Chip Scale Package), and requires almost no external components, making it suitable for compact designs.

Other HMC704LP4E features include adjustable differential outputs with amplitude between 200mV to 2V, configurable output polarity, and programmable output skew with a timing resolution of 4.4ps. The IC has a digital lock detection that ensures reliable and accurate clock synchronization on all outputs.
