GENERAL DESCRIPTION The HMC-C074 is a single stage power amplifier that operates between 10 MHz and 6 GHz. The amplifier provides 13 dB of gain, 40 dBm output IP3, and 29 dBm of output power at 1 dB gain compression while only consuming 450 mA from a 15 V supply. The amplifier inputs/outputs are dc blocked and internally matched to 50 Ω. Integrated voltage regulators allow for flexible biasing of both the negative and positive supply pins, while internal bias sequencing and active bias control allows for robust operation and stable performance over temperature. The ±0.75 dB gain flatness is excellent from 10 MHz to 6 GHz, making the HMC-C074 ideal for EW, ECM, radar, and test equipment applications. Rev.

Ensure that the backside case temperature never exceeds 70°C during operation by attaching the amplifier to a heat sink of suitable size. When operating with the backside case temperatures greater than 70°C, the lifetime of the device reduces. Prior to applying dc voltages, terminate both the RF input and RF output to 50 Ω. If dc voltages are applied to the device, do not disconnect the RF output. Rev. C | Page 8 of 10 Data Sheet HMC-C074 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION The HMC-C074 is a connectorized amplifier module designed with a single stage amplifier to deliver 29 dBm typical power with a 13 dB gain from 0.01 GHz to 6 GHz. The bias of internal amplifiers is supplied by +15 V and −5 V dc sources that power internal voltage regulators. The HMC-C074 features built-in bias sequencing and active bias control to prevent damage to the amplifiers and to maintain stable performance over temperature. The HMC-C074 is a miniature module that has SMA connectors for the RF input and output, and robust feed through for the bias and ground returns. Although the HMC-C074 contains bias sequencing circuitry, apply the negative voltage before the positive voltage for optimal performance. This bias sequencing order is especially important in a system where voltages turn off and on rapidly. For optimal performance, turn on the amplifier as follows: 1. 2. 3. 4. Verify that the dc connections are correct. Apply −VDC to the supply pin. Apply +VDC to the supply pin. Apply the RF input and ensure that the power level is correct. For optimal performance, turn off the amplifier as follows: 1. 2. Rev. C | Page 9 of 10 Turn off the +VDC supply. Turn off the −VDC supply. HMC-C074 Data Sheet OUTLINE DIMENSIONS 2.725 (69.22) 2.695 (68.46) 2.665 (67.70) 2.305 (58.55) 2.145 (54.48) 0.08 (2.03) 0.231 (5.87) TOP VIEW 0.125 (3.18) 0.160 (4.06 ) 2 1 2.440 (61.98) 2.600 (66.04) 3 GROUND LUG 4 0.245 (6.22) 0.225 (5.72) 0.205 (5.21) 5 Ø 0.102 (2.59) 0.500 (12.70) SIDE VIEW Ø 0.032 (0.81) 1.000 (25.40) 1.500 (38.10) 1.945 (49.40) END VIEW 0.560 (14.22) MAX CONTROLLING DIMENSIONS ARE IN INCHES; MILLIMETER DIMENSIONS (IN PARENTHESES) ARE ROUNDED-OFF INCH EQUIVALENTS FOR REFERENCE ONLY AND ARE NOT APPROPRIATE FOR USE IN DESIGN. 12-10-2015-A PKG-000000 0.242 (6.15) Figure 15. 5-Lead Module with Connector Interface [MODULE] (ML-5-2) Dimensions shown in inches and (millimeters) ORDERING GUIDE Model HMC-C074 Temperature Range −40°C to +70°C Package Description 5-Lead Module with Connector Interface [MODULE] ©2016 Analog Devices, Inc.
