616LP3E

HMC616LP3 / 616LP3E v00.0508 GaAs SMT PHEMT LOW NOISE AMPLIFIER, 175 - 660 MHz Features Low Noise Figure: 0.5 dB High Gain: 24 dB High Output IP3: +37 dBm Single Supply: +3V to +5V 50 Ohm Matched Input/Output 16 Lead 3x3mm QFN Package: 9 mm2 5 LOW NOISE AMPLIFIERS - SMT Typical Applications The HMC616LP3(E) is ideal for: • Cellular/3G and LTE/WiMAX/4G • BTS & Infrastructure • Repeaters and Femtocells • Public Safety Radio • DAB Receivers Functional Diagram General Description The HMC616LP3(E) is a GaAs PHEMT MMIC Low Noise Amplifier that is ideal for Cellular/3G and LTE/WiMAX/4G basestation front-end receivers operating between 175 and 660 MHz. The amplifier has been optimized to provide 0.5 dB noise figure, 24 dB gain and +37 dBm output IP3 from a single supply of +5V. Input and output return losses are excellent with minimal external matching and bias decoupling components. The HMC616LP3(E) shares the same package and pinout with the HMC617LP3(E) and HMC618LP3(E) LNAs. The HMC616LP3(E) can be biased with +3V to +5V and features an externally adjustable supply current which allows the designer to tailor the linearity performance of the LNA for each application.
