HMC508 Fo/2 Disable

Hi,

No, unfortunately there is no way to power down the HMC508 divider. What frequency do you need to operate at?

There may be a more suitable VCO with similar operating range that does not have an RFOut/2 divider. Such as HMC506 which has a frequency range of 7.8 - 8.7 GHz. Typical operating current is 77mA.
