HMC342LC4 v04.0514 GaAs PHEMT MMIC LOW NOISE AMPLIFIER, 13 - 25 GHz Typical Applications Features The HMC342LC4 is ideal for: Noise Figure: 3.5 dB Point-to-Point Radios Gain: 22 dB Point-to-Multi-Point Radios & VSAT Single Positive Supply: +3V 43 mA Test Equipment & Sensors 50 Ohm Matched Input/Output Military End-Use RoHS Compliant 4x4 mm SMT Package Functional Diagram General Description The HMC342LC4 is a GaAs pHEMT MMIC Low Noise Amplifier housed in a leadless 4x4 mm RoHS compliant SMT package. Operating from 13 to 25 GHz, the amplifier provides 22 dB of gain and +19 dBm of output IP3 from a single +3V supply. The low noise figure performance of 3.5 dB is ideal for receive and transmit pre-driver applications. The RF I/Os are DC blocked and matched to 50 Ohms for ease of use. The HMC342LC4 allows the use of surface mount manufacturing techniques and requires no external matching components. Electrical Specifications, T = +25 C, Vdd = +3V, Idd = 43 mA A Parameter Min. Typ.
