HMC694LP4

HMC694LP4 / 694LP4E v02.1108 GaAs MMIC ANALOG VARIABLE GAIN AMPLIFIER, 6 - 17 GHz Features Wide gain Control range: 23 db single Control Voltage Output ip3 @ max gain: +30 dbm Output p1db: +22 dbm no external matching 24 lead 4x4 mm smT package: 16 mm2 Typical Applications The HmC694lp4(e) is ideal for: • point-to-point radio • point-to-multi-point radio • eW & eCm • X-band radar • Test equipment Functional Diagram General Description The HmC694lp4(e) is a gaas mmiC pHemT analog variable gain amplifier which operates between 6 and 17 gHz. ideal for microwave radio applications, the amplifier provides up to 22 db of gain, output p1 db of up to +22 dbm, and up to +30 dbm of output ip3 at maximum gain, while requiring only 175 ma from a +5V supply. a gate bias pin (Vctrl) is provided to allow variable gain control up to 23 db. gain flatness is excellent making the HmC694lp4e ideal for eW, eCm and radar applications. The HmC694lp4e is housed in a roHs compliant 4x4 mm Qfn leadless package and is compatible with high volume surface mount manufacturing. 12 Variable gain amplifiers - analOg - smT Electrical Specifications, TA = +25°C, Vdd1, 2, 3= 5V, Vctrl= -2V, Idd= 170 mA* parameter frequency range gain gain flatness gain Variation Over Temperature gain Control range noise figure input return loss Output return loss Output power for 1 db Compression (p1db) saturated Output power (psat) Output Third Order intercept (ip3) Total supply Current (idd) 19 19 min.
