Functional Diagram
General Description
The HMC462LP5 & HMC462LP5E are GaAs MMIC pHEMT Low Noise Distributed Amplifiers in leadless 5x5 mm surface mount packages which operate between 2 and 20 GHz. The self-biased amplifier provides 13 dB of gain, 2.5 to 3.5 dB noise figure and +14.5 dBm of output power at 1 dB gain compression while requiring only 66 mA from a single +5V supply. Gain flatness is excellent from 6 - 18 GHz making the HMC462LP5 & HMC462LP5E ideal for EW, ECM RADAR and test equipment applications. The wideband amplifier I/Os are internally matched to 50 Ohms and are internally DC blocked.

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 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.
