General Description

The HMC899LP4E is a MMIC band pass filter which features a user selectable passband frequency. The 3 dB filter bandwidth is approximately 18. The 20 dB filter bandwidth is approximately 35. The center frequency can be varied between 18.5 and 37.0 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 HMC899LP4E has excellent microphonics due to the monolithic design, and provides a dynamically adjustable solution in advanced communications applications.
