General Description
The HMC372LP3 & HMC372LP3E are GaAs pHEMT
MMIC Low Noise Amplifiers that are ideal for GSM
& CDMA cellular basestation front-end receivers
operating between 700 and 1000 MHz. The amplifier
has been optimized to provide 1 dB noise figure, 15
dB gain and +34 dBm output IP3 from a single supply
of +5V @ 100 mA. Input and output return losses are
25 and 14 dB respectively with the LNA requiring only
four external components to optimize the RF Input
match, RF ground and DC bias. For applications
which require improved noise figure, please see the
HMC617LP3(E).

[1]
The circuit board used in the application should use
RF circuit design techniques. Signal lines should
have 50 Ohm impedance while the package ground
leads and exposed paddle should be connected
directly to the ground plane similar to that shown.
A sufficient number of via holes should be used to
connect the top and bottom ground planes. The
evaluation circuit board shown is available from
Analog Devices upon request.
