DC to 28 GHz, GaAs, pHEMT, MMIC, Low Noise Amplifier Data Sheet HMC8401 FEATURES GENERAL DESCRIPTION Output power for 1 dB compression (P1dB): 16.5 dBm typical The HMC8401 is a gallium arsenide (GaAs), pseudomorphic Saturated output power (P ): 19 dBm typical SAT high electron mobility transistor (pHEMT), monolithic microwave Gain: 14.5 dB typical integrated circuit (MMIC). The HMC8401 is a wideband low Noise figure: 1.5 dB noise amplifier which operates between dc and 28 GHz. The Output third order intercept (IP3): 26 dBm typical amplifier provides 14.5 dB of gain, 1.5 dB noise figure, 26 dBm Supply voltage: 7.5 V at 60 mA output IP3 and 16.5 dBm of output power at 1 dB gain compression 50 matched input/output while requiring 60 mA from a 7.5 V supply. The HMC8401 also Die size: 2.55 mm x 1.62 mm x 0.05 mm has a gain control option, V 2. The HMC8401 amplifier input/ GG outputs are internally matched to 50 facilitating integration APPLICATIONS into multichip modules (MCMs). All data is taken with the chip Test instrumentation connected via two 0.025 mm (1 mil) wire bonds of minimal Microwave radios and very small aperture terminals (VSATs) length 0.31 mm (12 mils).
