HMC-ALH244 v02.0209 GaAs HEMT MMIC LOW NOISE AMPLIFIER, 24 - 40 GHz 1 Typical Applications Features This HMC-ALH244 is ideal for: Noise Figure: 3.5 dB Point-to-Point Radios Gain: 12 dB Point-to-Multi-Point Radios P1dB Output Power: +13 dBm VSAT Supply Voltage: +4V 45 mA SATCOM Die Size: 2.50 x 1.4 x 0.1 mm General Description Functional Diagram The HMC-ALH244 is a two stage GaAs MMIC HEMT Low Noise Ampl ifier die which operates between 24 and 40 GHz. The ampl ifier provides 12 dB of gain, a noise fi gure of 3.5 dB, and requires only 45 mA from a +4V supply voltage. The HMC-ALH244 ampl ifier die is ideal for integration into Multi-Chip-Modules (MCMs) due to its small size (3.5 mm2). 1 2 Electrical Specifi cations , T = +25 C, Vdd= 4V, Idd = 45mA A Parameter Min.
