Functional Diagram
General Description
Gain: 20 dB
The HMC476MP86 & HMC476MP86E are SiGe
Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor (HBT) Gain Block
MMIC SMT amplifiers covering DC to 6 GHz. This
Micro-P packaged amplifier can be used as a
cascadable 50 Ohm RF/IF gain stage as well as a
LO or PA driver with up to +13 dBm output power.
The HMC476MP86 & HMC476MP86E offers 20 dB
of gain with a +25 dBm output IP3 at 850 MHz while
requiring only 35 mA from a single positive supply.
The Darlington feedback pair used 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 application should
use RF circuit design techniques. Signal lines should have 50 Ohm impedance while the package
ground leads 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.
