HMC608LC4TR

HMC608LC4TR is a high dynamic range GaAs pHEMT MMIC medium power amplifier. This amplifier has two modes of operation: high gain mode (Vpd pin shorted to ground); and low gain mode (Vpd pin left open). Operating from 9.5 to 11.5GHz, the amplifier provides 29.5dB of gain, +27.5dBm of saturated power, and 23% PAE from a +5V supply voltage. The noise figure is 6dB while the output IP3 is +33 dBm. The RF I/Os are DC-blocked and matched to 50 Ohms for ease of use. The HMC608LC4 eliminates the need for wire bonding, allowing the use of surface-mount manufacturing techniques. Applications include point-to-point radios, point-to-multi-point radios, and military end-use.
