General Description
B
SO
LE
The HMC475ST89(E) is a InGaP Heterojunction
Bipolar Transistor (HBT) Gain Block MMIC SMT
amplifier covering DC to 4.5 GHz. Packaged in an
industry standard SOT89, the amplifier can be used
as a cascadable 50 Ohm RF/IF gain stage as well as
a LO or PA driver with up to +25 dBm output power.
The HMC475ST89(E) offers 21.5 dB of gain and +35
dBm output IP3 at 850 MHz while requiring only 110
mA from a single positive supply. The Darlington
topology results in reduced sensitivity to normal
process variations and excellent gain stability over
temperature while requiring a minimal number of
external bias components.

The circuit board used in the final application
should use RF circuit design techniques. Signal
lines should have 50 Ohm impedance while the
package ground leads and package bottom 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 board should be mounted
to an appropriate heat sink. The evaluation circuit
board shown is available from Hittite upon request.
