HMC408LP3 / 408LP3E v03.0705 GaAs InGaP HBT MMIC 1 WATT POWER AMPLIFIER, 5.1 - 5.9 GHz 5 AMPLIFIERS - SMT Typical Applications The HMC408LP3 / HMC408LP3E is ideal for: • 802.11a & HiperLAN WLAN • UNII & Point-to-Point / Multi-Point Radios • Access Point Radios Features Gain: 20 dB Saturated Power: +32.5 dBm @ 27% PAE Single Supply Voltage: +5.0 V Power Down Capability 3x3 mm Leadless SMT Package Functional Diagram General Description The HMC408LP3 & HMC408LP3E are 5.1 - 5.9 GHz high efficiency GaAs InGaP Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor (HBT) Power Amplifier MMICs which offer +30 dBm P1dB. The amplifier provides 20 dB of gain, +32.5 dBm of saturated power, and 27% PAE from a +5.0V supply voltage. The input is internally matched to 50 Ohms while the output requires a minimum of external components. Vpd can be used for full power down or RF output power/current control. The amplifier is packaged in a low cost, 3x3 mm leadless surface mount package with an exposed base for improved RF and thermal performance.
