HMC383LC4

HMC383LC4 v00.0405 GaAs PHEMT MMIC MEDIUM POWER AMPLIFIER, 12 - 30 GHz 5 AMPLIFIERS - SMT Typical Applications The HMC383LC4 is ideal for use as a driver amplifier for: • Point-to-Point Radios • Point-to-Multi-Point Radios & VSAT • Test Equipment & Sensors • LO Driver for HMC Mixers • Military & Space Features Gain: 15 dB Saturated Output Power: +18 dBm Output IP3: +25 dBm Single Positive Supply: +5.0 V @ 100 mA 50 Ohm Matched Input/Output RoHS Compliant 4x4 mm Package Functional Diagram General Description The HMC383LC4 is a general purpose GaAs PHEMT MMIC Driver Amplifier housed in a leadless RoHS compliant SMT package. The amplifier provides 15 dB of gain and +18 dBm of saturated power from a single +5.0V supply. Consistent gain and output power across the operating band make it possible to use a common driver/LO amplifier approach in multiple radio bands. The RF I/Os are DC blocked and matched to 50 Ohms for ease of use. The HMC383LC4 is housed in a RoHS compliant leadless 4x4 mm package allowing the use of surface mount manufacturing techniques.

The circuit board used in this 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 board should be mounted to an appropriate heat sink.
