HMC442LC3B v03.0514 GaAs PHEMT MMIC MEDIUM POWER AMPLIFIER, 17.5 - 25.5 GHz Typical Applications Features The HMC442LC3B is an ideal gain block or driver Gain: 13 dB amplifier for: Saturated Power: +23 dBm 26% PAE Point-to-Point Radios Supply Voltage: +5V Point-to-Multi-Point Radios 50 Ohm Matched Input/Output LO Driver for HMC Mixers RoHS Compliant 3 x 3 mm SMT package Military EW & ECM Functional Diagram General Description The HMC442LC3B is an efficient GaAs PHEMT MMIC Medium Power Amplifier housed in a leadless Pb free RoHS compliant SMT package. Operating between 17.5 and 25.5 GHz, the amplifier provides 13 dB of gain, +23 dBm of saturated power and 26% PAE from a +5V supply voltage. This 50 Ohm matched amplifier does not require any external components, making it an ideal linear gain block or driver for HMC SMT mixers. The HMC442LC3B allows the use of surface mount manufacturing techniques. Electrical Specifications, T = +25 C, Vdd = +5V, Idd = 84 mA* A Parameter Min. Typ. Max. Min. Typ. Max. Min. Typ. Max.
