HMC-ALH508 v02.0209 GaAs HEMT LOW NOISE AMPLIFIER, 71 - 86 GHz 1 Typical Applications Features This hm C-Alh 508 is ideal for: n oise f igure: <5 dB s hort h aul / h igh Capacity l inks p1dB: +7 dBm w ireless l An s Gain: 13 dB Automotive r adar s upply Voltage: +2.4V military & s pace 50 o hm matched input/o utput e-Band Communication s ystems Die s ize: 3.2 x 1.6 x 0.1 mm General Description Functional Diagram The hm C-Alh 508 is a three stage GaAs he mT mmiC l ow n oise Amplifier ( ln A) which operates between 71 and 86 Gh z. The hm C-Alh 508 features 13 dB of small signal gain, 4.5 dB of noise figure and an output power of +7 dBm at 1dB compression from two supply voltages at 2.1V and 2.4V respectively. All bond pads and the die backside are Ti/Au metallized and the amplifier device is fully pass- ivated for reliable operation. This versatile ln A is compatible with conventional die attach methods, as well as thermocompression and thermosonic wire bonding, making it ideal for mCm and hybrid microcircuit applications. All data shown herein is measured with the chip in a 50 o hm environment and contacted with r f probes. 1 Electrical Specifications , T = +25 C A 2 Vdd1=Vdd2 = 2.1V, Vdd3=2.4V, Idd1+Idd2+Idd3 = 30 mA parameter min.
