HMC464LP5

GaAs PHEMT MMIC

POWER AMPLIFIER, 2.0 - 20.0 GHz

v00.0304

General Description

Features

Functional Diagram

The HMC464LP5 is a GaAs MMIC PHEMT Dis-

tributed Power Amplifier in a leadless 5 x 5 mm

surface mount package which operates between

2 and 20 GHz. The amplifier provides 14 dB of

gain, +30 dBm output IP3 and +26 dBm of output

power at 1 dB gain compression while requiring

290 mA from a +8V supply. Gain flatness is good

from 2 - 18 GHz making the HMC464LP5 ideal

for EW, ECM and radar driver amplifier as well as

test equipment applications. The wideband ampli-

fier I/O’s are internally matched to 50 Ohms.
