General Description
The HMC464LP5 & HMC464LP5E are GaAs MMIC PHEMT Distributed Power Amplifiers in leadless 5 x 5 mm surface mount packages which operate between 2 and 20 GHz. The amplifier provides 14 dB of gain, +30 dBm output IP3 and +26 dBm of output power at 1 dB gain compression while requiring 290 mA from a +8V supply. Gain flatness is good from 2 - 18 GHz making the HMC464LP5(E) ideal for EW, ECM and radar driver amplifiers as well as test equipment applications. The wideband amplifier I/O’s are internally matched to 50 Ohms.

The circuit board used in the final 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.
