2 GHz to 30 GHz, GaAs pHEMT MMIC Low Noise Amplifier Data Sheet HMC8400 FEATURES GENERAL DESCRIPTION Output power for 1 dB compression (P1dB): 14.5 dBm typical The HMC8400 is a gallium arsenide (GaAs), pseudomorphic Saturated output power (P ): 17 dBm typical SAT high electron mobility transistor (pHEMT), monolithic microwave Gain: 13.5 dB typical integrated circuit (MMIC). The HMC8400 is a wideband low Noise figure: 2 dB noise amplifier that operates between 2 GHz and 30 GHz. The Output third-order intercept (IP3): 26.5 dBm typical amplifier provides 13.5 dB of gain, a 2 dB noise figure, 26.5 dBm Supply voltage: 5 V at 67 mA output IP3, and 14.5 dBm of output power at 1 dB gain compres- 50 matched input/output sion, requiring 67 mA from a 5 V supply. The HMC8400 is self Die size: 2.7 mm 1.35 mm 0.05 mm biased with only a single positive supply needed to achieve a drain current I of 67 mA. The HMC8400 also has a gain control DD APPLICATIONS option, VGG2. The HMC8400 amplifier input/outputs are internally Test instrumentation matched to 50 and dc blocked, facilitating integration into Microwave radios and very small aperture terminals (VSATs) multichip modules (MCMs). All data is taken with the chip Military and space connected via two 0.025 mm (1 mil) wire bonds of minimal Telecommunications infrastructure length 0.31 mm (12 mils).
